Zusammenfassung
This paper explores the way that Arturo Ripstein’s film recreates the stereotype of Medea. Using film analysis and based on cultural studies the article asks about the importance and potential power of cinema to recover the ancient myth and show their effects. The analysis expands horizons for the understanding of the mechanisms that link the network of meanings of the film, where the author offers a new vision of Medea's archetype bringing it closer from television formats and popular culture. Medea became in this film the warrior against the symbolic violence.
