Abstract

This article discusses the possible meanings of contrasexuality and the uses of body technologies based on the speeches of transgender characters of the documentaries Bombadeira (2007) and Protagonismo Trans (2015). From a post-feminist analytical view, specifically the works of Rubin, Butler, Haraway and Preciado, the aim of the study is to identify discursive meanings of contrasexuality in the speeches of the characters. The methodology strategy was based on film analysis, discursive and literature review.
