Narrativas distópicas : projeto Íris

Abstract

The cinematic narratives reflect, as well as the literary works, the conscious and subconscious of their authors, according to the context in which they are in. In addition to social factors, History also plays a crucial role in the elaboration and transformation of the ideas that will be shared with the spectators; it carries decades of meanings within itself, but also experiences, which can – and will be – converted into expectations. Therefore, this work aims to propose an original animated series project, with a dystopian theme, entitled Projeto Íris. For the presentation, a reference bible will be prepared, containing the plot, the script for the pilot episode, the synopses of the episodes planned for the first season, along with an initial supplementary study on two of the main subgenres of science fiction narratives that inspired the story. This theoretical chapter will observe the contributions of science from different areas to the art of fiction stories, specially audiovisual, through a focus on dystopian and cyberpunk narratives, presenting perspectives from different authors.
