Este relatório acompanha o processo de realização de um documentário sobre a banda Fado Bicha. Género musical consagrado património imaterial da humanidade em 2011, o fado, a mitologia e as representações que lhe são associadas, ocupam um lugar fulcral na construção da identidade nacional e na simbologia popular da cultura portuguesa. Essa mitologia tem no seu centro as figuras da/do fadista que se tornaram ao longo dos séculos XIX e XX, ícones incontornáveis do imaginário coletivo, alvo tanto de fascínio e celebração, como de rejeições, subversões e múltiplas polémicas. O recente surgimento arco-íris do duo Fado Bicha, formado por João Caçador e Lila Tiago, que reivindica uma livre associação do fado ao activismo LGBTQI, constitui uma das mais recentes e originais expressões desse duplo movimento de celebração e subversão, trazendo para a antropologia uma série de questões ainda pouco analisadas. Ao colocar em paralelo uma descrição das performances, dos discursos de Lila e João e dos seus percursos de vida com um questionamento mais abrangente sobre o fado e o conceito de “autenticidade” a ele associado, o relatório interroga as relações complexas e contraditórias do imaginário do fado com as representações da sexualidade e do género e a permanente resistência, ao longo da história, de identidades queer neste imaginário; como se propõe também questionar a abordagem cinematográfica como instrumento de investigação antropológica.
This report covers the completion of a documentary film about the musical band Fado Bicha. Musical genre consecrated intangible heritage of humanity in 2011, fado, mythology and the representations associated with it, occupy a central place in the construction of national identity and in the popular symbolism of Portuguese culture. This mythology has at its center the figure of the fado singer, who became throughout the 19th and 20th centuries, an unavoidable icon of the collective imaginary, subject of fascination and celebration, as well as rejection, subversion and multiple polemics. The recent emergence of the Fado Bicha duo, formed by João Caçador and Lila Tiago, who claim a free association of fado with LGBTQI activism, constitutes one of the most recent and original expressions of this double movement of celebration and subversion, bringing to anthropology a series of questions still rarely analyzed. By placing in parallel a description of the performances, of Lila and João's discourses and their life stories with a broader questioning about fado and the concept of “authenticity” associated to it, the report interrogates the complex and contradictory relations of the fado imaginary with representations of sexuality and gender and the permanent resistance, throughout history, of queer identities in this imaginary; as it also proposes to question the cinematographic approach as a tool for anthropological research.
