Abstract

The film "Earth in trance" is analyzed in the work from the thought of C. Türcke on the historical and social process of sedimentation and desedimentation of the human sensorium. In it, the concepts of compulsion to traumatic repetition, exploration of concentration, desedimentation and resurgence of the ability to concentrate are resumed. In the development of the analysis highlights a peculiar way of evidencing a precariousness in the production of images in living relation with a precarious condition of the human body in front of the technical apparatus of production of the images. Analysis of the aesthetics of the film based on the studied philosophical concepts evidences it as allegory of the human need to recover the shocks suffered with the Military Coup of 1964 or with the whirlwind of audiovisual images of the present times. The nexus elaborated between the trance of the film and the current time in the view provoke a reflection of teachers / teachers around the need to value the exercise of mental imaging and the retrospective look of the daily "trance" that live in their pedagogical practices as a way in the reduce the deleterious effects of such a trance to the domain of own attention.
