Overview
In this essay I analyze four instances in the representation of the juridical-legal scenario in relation to gender violence (especially rape and femicide) in the Argentine cinema since the nineties. Despite the fact that in all cases there is a questioning of justice (and a staging of injustice), in all the films that I will analyze different legal or juridical dilemmas arise. Either in the form of a denouncement of a crime that shocked the entire Argentine society (El caso María Soledad), or of a questioning of justice in the midst of impunity and neoliberalism and a simultaneous invisibility of gender and women (Cenizas del paraiso) or a questioning of justice and the remnants of the terrorist state but now anchored in the question of a femicide (El secreto de sus ojos), or a theoretical discussion about justice that uses the corpse of a young woman as a background and as an excuse to discuss the male power of law (Tesis sobre un homicidio), all the films that I am going to analyze delineate the law and, above all, its edges, that is, what is not represented in the legal or juridical scenario but it is often a determining factor in judicial decisions that violate justice and women's rights. En este ensayo analizo cuatro instancias en la representación del escenario jurídico-legal en relación con la violencia de género (en especial la violación sexual y el femicidio) dentro el cine argentino desde los noventa. A pesar de que en todos los casos hay un cuestionamiento de la justicia (y una puesta en escena de lo injusto), en todas las películas que analizaré se plantean diferentes dilemas legales o jurídicos. Ya sea en forma de denuncia de un crimen que conmocionó a toda la sociedad argentina (El caso María Soledad), o de un cuestionamiento de la justicia en plena época de impunidad y neoliberalismo y una simultánea invisibilización del género y de las mujeres (Cenizas del paraíso), o de un cuestionamiento de la justicia y los resabios del Estado terrorista, pero ahora anclado en la pregunta sobre un femicidio (El secreto de sus ojos), o una discusión teórica sobre la justicia que hace uso del cadáver de una joven mujer como telón de fondo y como excusa para discutir el poder masculino del derecho (Tesis sobre un homicidio). Los films que voy a analizar delinean la ley y, sobre todo, sus bordes, es decir, lo que no queda representado en el escenario legal o jurídico, pero que es muchas veces determinante de decisiones judiciales que atentan contra la justicia y contra los derechos de las mujeres.
