Abstract:
»This paper examines sexualnecropolitics in the Argentinean film, Garage Olimpo. The film is a fictional account of the detention of activist Maria during the Argentinean dictatorship. The portrayal of Maria’s captive body on screen evinces the centrality of sexuality in necropolitics as the masculinist, military state reinforced absolute power over her death through sexual means. Drawing on Hortense Spillers’ term “pornotrope” and Achille Mbembe’s concept of necropolitics, this paper asks the following: is it possible for narrative cinema to represent sexual violence committed by the masculinist state without making a fetishistic spectacle of captive bodies?«
