“…A first type focuses on representations of urban localities, cities, and urban processes in specific media texts, genres or in the production of an author. These representations are explored in relation to media as diverse as literature (Lehan 1998), comics (Davies 2017), videogames (Anable 2013), web documentaries (Holmes 2017), but also tourist brochures and guidebooks (Gilbert 1999;Siegenthaler 2002), and through interpretative methodologies that are strictly connected to the specificities of the corpus of texts under study. Particular attention is devoted to the relationship between cinema and the city, insofar as these are seen as "the most important cultural formcinemaand the most important form of social organizationthe cityin the twentieth century (and, for the time being at least, the twenty-first century)" (Shiel 2001: 1; for an overview of cases see Chapter 3, this volume).…”

This article analyses Maria Augusta Ramos's 2016 observational documentary Futuro Junho/Future June, filmed in the Brazilian city of São Paulo in the lead-up to the 2014 FIFA World Cup. Taking as its starting point a connection, established by one of the film's four main "characters", or subjects, between Brazilian historian Sérgio Buarque de Holanda's influential work on cordiality and the idea of circulation between public and private spheres, the article explores how circulation (economic, urban, media, and cultural) is portrayed in the documentary, as well as how it foregrounds both spatial and temporal movements. This is complemented by a discussion of the film's own circulation through attention to critical reviews which have debated the film's success in documenting, in a timely way, a national conjuncture characterised by crisis and conflict as well as unpredictability and rapid change.The article argues that by imbricating and intertwining multiple cultures of circulation, and by drawing attention to the varied economic and urban experiences of its characters and the spaces between them, Futuro Junho captures a Brazil in flux.
