Aimee and Jaguar Weaving Identities Threads Within the Mismatch Between Time and Gender

Cinema is an important instrument of aesthetic maintenance or resistance to social constraints and has poetic relevance as an expression of art, even when the tension of World War II within 1943 and 1944 is narrated in the movie Aimee & Jaguar, under direction and screenplay by Max Farberbock with a writing time from 1998. The aim of this study is to analyze, from the point of view of gender, the representation of women deprived of society-related prejudices and inserted in the both family and public life plans. The love story between two young women may contribute to the understanding of time and space in the Nazi period. With an emphasis on that politics, the director brings behind the narrative a memory of the present tense writing aimed to the characters' previous affective life - a Jewish and a German girl who try to preserve human integrity with an understanding of gender identity.
