Descricão e Informacões AdicionaisThe present article refers to image-media and symbolic construction of dissident gender identities. We begin with sixty-five movies chosen along five years. Subsequently, a selection was made from the movie?s characters, finally leading to two movies, which will be analyzed in this article.
