Abstract

This article explores the representation of forms of violence against women through the analysis of two episodes of the audiovisual series ARTE H24. 24 hours in the life of a woman (2021). It offers a contextualization of European legislation and a review of concepts such as alternative cinema and female gaze. Through a series of indicators extracted from the most relevant publications, it provides insight into how this series offers innovative models of representation for forms of violence that are sometimes not perceived as such.
