Neste artigo, discute-se, em três momentos, o binômio humanidade animalidade, tendo por base, inicialmente, a noção agambeniana de “máquina
antropológica” com o objetivo de situar a perspectiva de análise adotada na compreensão
de que o ser humano tem sido forjado por meio de incessantes separações entre a
humanidade e a animalidade. Em um segundo momento, abre-se espaço para reflexões
que buscam compreender e superar a ideia da pretensa excepcionalidade humana diante
das demais formas de vida, uma vez que as relações de exploração que a humanidade tem
estabelecido com o meio ambiente fundam-se, exatamente, nesta falácia. Em um terceiro
momento, pensa-se de que forma e, em que medida, tais problematizações acerca do
binômio humanidade-animalidade podem ser exemplificadas, ou mesmo ampliadas, a
partir do filme Os Banshees de Inisherin. O filme em questão foi tomado como um
artefato cultural com potencial para sustentar reflexões sobre as relações humanas com o
meio ambiente, em geral, e com espécies companheiras, em particular. A análise da
presença animal no referido filme, especialmente na figura da jumentinha Jenny, revela
como os vínculos entre humanos e animais não humanos ultrapassam os limites da
convivência utilitária, expondo mundos compostos por afetos, histórias e co-existências
éticas.
In this article, the humanity-animality binomial is discussed in three stages, initially based on Agamben’s notion of the “anthropological machine,” with the aim of framing the analytical perspective adopted around the idea that the human being has been forged through incessant separations between humanity and animality. In the second stage, space is opened for reflections that seek to understand and overcome the notion of alleged human exceptionalism in relation to other forms of life, since the exploitative relationships humanity has established with the environment are founded precisely on this fallacy. In the third stage, the discussion turns to how and to what extent these problematizations surrounding the humanity-animality binomial can be exemplified, or even expanded, through the film The Banshees of Inisherin. The film is treated as a cultural artifact with the potential to support reflections on human relationships with the environment in general and with companion species in particular. The analysis of animal presence in the film, especially through the character of the little donkey Jenny, reveals how the bonds between humans and non-human animals go beyond utilitarian coexistence, exposing worlds shaped by affections, histories, and ethical co-existences.
