RESUMO

This paper aims to understand how the Brazilian cinema - designed as a symptom of our social juncture, as a result of economic conditions, political and cultural of our time points out the existence of a permanent state of exception in our legal and political structure. We will try to establish a theoretical path (Foucault, Arendt and Schmitt) to situate from where Giorgio Agamben starts in hisconception of state of exception as the contemporary biopolitic reality . The Italian philosopher focuses on the current paradigm of government: a State without rights, a legal uncertainty, a "land of nobody." The films chosen - "Notícias de uma guerra particular," "O prisioneiro da grade de ferro" and "Tropa de elite" - will give us the impact of the cinema as an experience to make a certain restlessness of our social reality visible
