CANGI, Adrián Esteban. Pampa Bandera. Meditations on land and territory on Albertina Carri´s Cuatreros. Folia [online]. 2017, n.30, pp.29-51. ISSN 0325-8238.

This article analyzes the film Cuatreros (2016), directed by Albertina Carri. In the first place, I will inquire on the notions of land and territory, resorting to archeological and genealogical perspectives, focusing on the poetic description of this mythical land, as well as on the material geography known as "Pampa Bandera" (the territory where the pursued cuatreros Velázquez and Gauna travelled). Secondly, I will address the concepts of land and territory and, at the same time, I will question the notions of autoctonía and fundación. These last concepts are important since they help us to conceive the fabled biography and the political myth, which are related to the wasteland and the insurrection territory. In addition, any form of cartographic taxonomy is critically contested.

Palabras clave : Land; Territory; Frontier; Aesthetics; Politics.
