Quando a chuva passar : o registro de um processo, proposta de roteiro de curta-metragem ficcional

Abstract

The project Quando a Chuva Passar consists of the creation of a short film screenplay articulated with a reflection on the author’s own creative process. Throughout its writing trajectory, the script went through different drafts and treatments, being developed in screenwriting labs, industry meetings, and consultancy spaces, which enabled fundamental exchanges for the maturation of the work. The creative process is closely related to the author’s personal history and to the territory of Mato Grosso, located in the municipality of Rio de Contas, the town where he grew up. It is grounded in territorial, geographical, and social conflicts that shape the subjective constitution of the protagonist, Antônio. The project is mainly anchored in the concepts developed by Cecília Almeida Salles regarding the creative process, especially in the understanding of the artwork as a gesture in construction. Quando a Chuva Passar is not only a narrative about the discovery of sexuality by a man from the countryside, but also a sensitive account of rupture with patriarchal structures, while simultaneously engaging the author in his own reflection on belonging, identity, and his relationship with his territory of origin.
