Minas dos Becos do Monte: documentário sobre a representação das identidades femininas no espaço do rap santa-mariense

Abstract

The present work has as main objective to discuss the representation of feminine identities of rap in the city of Santa Maria (RS), understood as a confrontation to the hegemonic discourses, represented by masculine, white and upper class values. It sought to analyze counter-hegemonic cultures and identities, their struggles for affirmation in the spaces of representation; as well as understanding the importance of hip hop for the construction of these identities. The first chapter presents the concepts of culture, identity, representation and hegemony by the bias of Cultural Studies; the second chapter makes reflections on hip hop and rap as a peripheral culture; then, on the third chapter, documentary genre and interview is conceived. The documentary "Minas dos becos do Monte", described in the fourth chapter, is starred by four women from the hip hop culture and rap of the city of Santa Maria (RS), who narrate their trajectories, conceptions and their participations in the movement, bringing their narratives of fight to exist and resist the pains and violence of sexism and silence.
