Mundo del trabajo, representación gremial e identidad obrera en Los traidores (1973)

The paper analyze the film The traitors (1973), the most important political film of the argentinian filmaker Raymundo Gleyzer and the Cine de la Base group, about a peronist trade unionist corrupted by his rise to power. In the first place, we study the narrative strategies of the film in relationship to the Raymond Williams reflections on cinema and socialism, and his notion of structure of feeling. In the second place, our analysis deals with the ways The traitors represent the world of labor and the workers' actions and demonstrations (factory occupations and street fighting) in relationship to some visual topics from cinema and tv. Finally, the paper propose a new interpretation about the political discourse about the working class alternative proposed by the film
