Abstract

This text focus on various cinematographic works documentaries, and films principally, but also musicals, sociological studies, photographic montage, philosophical works, theater, and news –to highlight the masculine subjectivity that inhabits them–. Talking like a man today, calling oneself a man, and acting like a man, is different today than calling oneself a man, and acting as such, two, three or more decades ago. This text, this author, claim the current world is emptied of masculinity
