Abstract
The present text deals with the semantic and discursive richness of Balarrasa through the detailed textual analysis of the feature film, revealing how its religious thematic is problematized through insistent enunciative comments that critically distant its discourse from the standard reading pattern. Our intention is to show the internal tensions that run through the filmic text, whose discursive epicenter is tangentially displaced towards social and moral issues while outlining subaltern themes that complicate the apparent simplicity and schematism of its argument.
