Abstract

The access and domain of digital audio-visual technologies have expanded the Guaranis’ conceptions on the capture of their personal images, instituting the image of the indigenous moviemaker, who gains an active role in the creation of their history’s future. The present text tackles some senses indicated by the Guaranis concerning reproduction, utility and circulation of images and information throughout the communities and cities, concerning their own considerations on their role as mediators and their relation with the movie making process and equipment. Comments from the Guaranis and Innu moviemakers who participated in the partnership project and audio-visual exchange between the institutions La Boite Rouge vif (BRV), Centro de Trabalho Indigenista (CTI) and Laboratorio de Imagem e Som em Antropologia from the University of Sao Paulo (LISA/USP) were also included.
