This dissertation aims at showing that metalanguage constitutes the space of the real in Eduardo Coutinho's documentary films. The films chosen for analysis are: Twenty Years After (1984), Strong Saint (1999), Babilonia 2000 (2000) and Master Building (2002), in which I look at the processes of pre-production, production and editing in order to identify the director's specific techniques and authorial features. My main theoretical resources were concepts on the documentary genre developed by Bill Nichols (the reflexivity) and Jean-Claude Bernardet (the voice of experience). The analyses carried out made it possible to determine procedures which are typical of Coutinho's method, namely the use of interviews, the legitimisation of the characters' voices, the use of off-comentaries which do not aim at conveying the absolute truth, and the on-screen presence of the director, the crew and the technical apparatus. This method is based on an ethos and a political atitude which forbids the manipulation of the real, especially when it is a matter of broadcasting the voice and the image of the oppressed
