Description
Summary:This paper presents an analysis of The Daughters of Fire, a film by the Argentine filmmaker Albertina Carri (2019), claimed by her as feminist porn. In the fiction feature, we see a group of women who travel through Argentine Patagonia in an orgiastic lesbian experience. Inspired by queer theories, studies on sensoriality in cinema and pornography, in addition to the notion of reparative practice in Eve Sedgwick (2020), the work seeks to identify the ways in which the films provokes displacements in the figurations of female desire, producing a politics of image in dialogue with what Paul B. Preciado (2007, 2018) calls playful feminism, which finds its spaces of action in audiovisual, literature or performance and which would be able to operate as a mechanism of resistance to sexual normativities.
