This thesis investigates the representation of the Amazon region in the documentary feature films of the Portuguese-Brazilian filmmaker Silvino Santos Amazonas, maior rio do mundo (1918-1920) and No paiz das Amazonas (1921/1922), considering its historical and aesthetic dimension.It seeks to discuss the particularities apprehended in each of them through the filmic analysis and the light of the history and the discursive traditions about the focused region.The analyzes attempted to demonstrate the multifaceted transit of historical and cultural references that are at the origin of the cinematographic creation of Silvino Santos and the local elites with whom he related.Various elements were used, from official reports, criticisms of newspapers, books, photographs, paintings, postcards that corroborate diverse strategies of filming, whether they are "documentary", ficionalizantes, staged etc.The aim was to show the complex transit of roots, procedures and effects recognized in the treated objects.As well as an attempt was made to look at the relation of the filmic discourses with the current colonialist context in the so-called silent film.The course of the research also presents a panoramic study on the main discursive productions, mainly visual, dating back to the end of the 19th century, the boom of the rubber economy and the period of implementation of the modern propaganda financed and demanded by the governmental and commercial elites of Amazonas.Considerations of the New History of Cinema, Cultural History and Social History of Art were taken as theoretical references
