Summary:

From the film The conductor (2019) we propose to establish a reading in reference to three thematic axes that emerge from the plot: the historical social inequality between men and women; the gender identity dimension; and the construction of identity as an inescapable condition of the field of subjectivity. These axes are addressed starting from the problematization proposed in fiction, to trace their articulation with the field of ethics and human rights. It is also proposed a reading around the effectiveness of music and its sound support in the operation of a repositioning of the subject before the identity conjuncture.

Key words: rights | identity | music | gender
