O cinema-lagarta dos Tikmũ’ũn: teoria-prática das imagens xamânicas

Abstract

In this article, I approach the films Tatakox (2007); Tatakox Vila Nova (2009) and Kakxop pit hãmkoxuk xop te yũmũgãhã (Initiation of the sons of the earth spirits, 2015), directed by Tikmũ’ũn collectives, trying to identify in this works, precarious traces of a "multiple shamanism". I intent to think the encounter between cinema - a technology of ĩnmõxa - and the Caterpillar spirit-people (tatakox), who with their aerophones, punch their skin, opening passages through it.
