    Master Thesis
    The Intertopian Elements in Terry Gilliam's Brazil
    (Kadir Has Üniversitesi, 2014) Akser, Didem Durak; Koçer, Suncem
    This thesis does a multi-layered reading of the film Brazil in terms of form and style. The analysis sees the utilization of dystopia and utopia in Brazil as notions and modes and not as genres. Terry Gilliam’s Brazil is often commonly treated as a dystopia. A new concept intertopia is used for describing Brazil to indicate its in-between position. The defining elements of intertopia are examined through the dystopian elements in the film as well as the utopian elements for such as the humorous tone the dream and daydreaming sequences the notion of hope in the film and the ending. -- Absract'tan.
