Abstract

This Masters Dissertation analyzes audiovisual narratives produced by high school students during the rallies demonstration of the year 2015. Such events took thousands of youngsters to the streets and reached its peak when 200 schools in the São Paulo state were occupied.

As the support of authors such as Manuel Castells, Jean-Louis Comolli, Ismail Xavier e Max Schleser, this study is aimed at understanding if the means of production interferes in the way the recording process is made and if it hints at a new form of narrative.
