It is a cultural practice that has remained in the margins of the anthropology. However, new relative interests to the understanding in the ways of seeing, it has allowed us to investigate with certain depth in the operations of this domain and their visual devices. This article described the devices and visual procedures to native representations a Chilean cinema fiction. Our results suggest the presence a cultural strategy whose representations don't try with the cultural diversity, but rather they appear as a utopian way of imagining the social world.
