Abstract

It is an analysis of the characters Kátia and Agenor, from the telenovela O grito , by Jorge Andrade, broadcasted by TV Globo between 1975 and 1976. The work is part of a small group called "alternative" or "experimental" by the specialized bibliography of telenovelas. The paper addresses issues of masculinity and homosexuality, comparing different versions of the scripts, and the video of the first episode. We also comment the treatment of these themes in other works of the playwright, as his autobiographical novel Labirinto, first published in 1978.
