ALMIRON, Valeria Natividad  e  MOGLIA, Brenda. Medical History (2012): trajectories of health-disease in the Argentine open television. Rev Med Cine [online]. 2021, vol.17, n.3, pp.31-40.  Epub 30-Maio-2022. ISSN 1885-5210.  https://dx.doi.org/10.14201/rmc2021173197206.

This article aims to analyze the ideas, imaginaries and metaphors around health and disease that appear in the open television unit Medical History (2012). Through the health-disease trajectories of the characters featured in the television program are proposed the following topics-problems: doctor-patient relationship; medical and political relationship; biomedicine versus folk medicine; dignified death and emotions as part of medical history. These axes are described and analyzed taking as a focus certain situations or episodes. In this way, it reflects on the importance of contextualizing each character historically, socially and individually to realize the complexity that the health-disease trajectory requires.

Palavras-chave : Argentine open television; docu-fiction; medical history; history; health-disease.
