Abstract

This article analyzes the short film 35 and Single (2013), by Paula Schargorodsky, focusing on the relationships between memory, intericonicity, and female subjectivity. It proposes a reading of the documentary as an autobiographical essay that reinscribes personal experiences within a network of culturally shared images related to gender, affection, and individual fulfillment. Using a qualitative methodology based on film analysis and the review of media sources, the study examines how the narrator occupies an enunciative position that challenges hegemonic representations of marriage. The article argues that the short film mobilizes collective visual memory as a critical strategy, reconfiguring established meanings through montage and the circulation of images.
