Abstract

Caminhada da Seca is an annual pilgrimage that, in addition to involving the faithful and promise keepers, is established as a gesture of memory of the 1932 drought concentration camps in Senador Pompeu, state of Ceará, Brazil. Based on it, other memory gestures are also carried out, giving contours to the events and conferring political participation to the symbolic disputes over the ways of accepting and refusing coexistence with the stories involved in this case.
In this article, focusing on the proposals made by Uzina Films in two audiovisual productions, we seek to discuss the political dimensions of the memories that are acted out with the works.
