Summary: Within the diversity of academic productions of Brazilian cinema and geography
studies available in scientific publication sites such as Google Scholar, in virtual libraries such
as the Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO) or in journal portals such as CAPES
(Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel) it is possible to notice
that the problems range from teaching to research discussing concepts dear to geography such
as space, place, landscape, region and territory with varied approaches such as, for example,
the use of films in geography teaching or critical geographic analysis of the works. Since it is
an interdisciplinary field, many of these works endeavor to think about a methodology. Such
variety makes it difficult to identify and categorize the theoretical and methodological paths
of analysis that can be followed. Therefore, our interest consists in mapping a niche of this
diversity, the landscape in Brazilian studies of geography and cinema that make film analysis.
To do so, we defined the following specific objectives: to apply Content Analysis techniques
(BARDIN, 2011) in Brazilian scientific articles on geography and cinema that analyze films
using the Atlas.ti qualitative data analysis program; to perform a Content Analysis (BARDIN,
2011) of these studies with the help of frequency data and structural models; to present a
theoretical and methodological panorama of Brazilian geography and cinema studies; to
perform a critical analysis of the methodological processes of these studies that discuss
landscape; and to outline a film analysis methodology based on the previous result. Content
analysis, according to Laurence Bardin (2011), is a set of systematic and objective
methodological techniques to be applied to the most diverse types of discourses aiming to
generate quantitative or qualitative indicators that allow to perform inference and
interpretation of these discourses. Atlas.ti is a computer-assisted qualitative data analysis
software (CAQDAS) that works with various text formats with no size limit and has several
tools that allow the application of Content Analysis techniques. In this study we used version
9 of the program with a student license.
Keywords: geography; cinema; landscape; content analysis; atlas.ti.
