Acesso em:.https://bdm.ufpa.br/handle/prefix/5655This article aims to analyze the movie The Fifth Power, a Brazilian movie from 1962, directed by Alberto Pieralisi and produced by Carlos Pedregal. The movie tells the story of an infiltration of foreign enemies in Brazil in an attempt to control the country using brainwashing of the masses through subliminal messages sent by radio and television. This work is a dystopia set in the cold war and this is a conspiracy theory that many people believed at that time, and therefore, this movie will go through studies of comparison between the real context, filmic context relating to the concept of conspiracy theory. For this work, we will bring authors such as Sunstein and Vermeule (2009 apud COADY, 2018) who work with conspiracy theories, and a historian who researches the Brazilian historical context at the time the movie was launched. As well as, for the critical fortune we used the following authors Philip Agee (1975), Tom Moylan (2000) and Reis Filho (2014). This study aims to analyze the dystopian aspects present in the movie and how they were approached.Acesso AbertoDystopiaConspiracy theorySubliminal messageDistopiaTeoria da conspiraçãoMensagem subliminarCNPQ::LINGUISTICA, LETRAS E ARTES::LETRASThe 5th power: conspiracy theory and dystopiaTrabalho de Curso - Graduação - Artigo
