BUSTAMANTE VELEZ, LUCÍA. Textual analysis of the movie Man facing southeast. Cuad. linguist. hisp. [online]. 2014, n.23, pp.103-118. ISSN 0121-053X.

This article develops an interpretation of the movie "Man facing southeast" [originally "Hombre mirando al sudeste"] by Argentinean filmmaker Eliseo Subiela. In order to achieve this, specific fragments were selected. The main topic in these fragments is religion, especially the process of annunciation, apotheosis, sentence and death of Rantés, connected to the biblical story of Jesus Christ which is characteristic of Christianity. Finally, a connection is established with Freud's psychoanalytical theory.

Keywords : Pragmatics; textual analysis; cinematographic language; religion; psychoanalysis.
