description This paper seeks to make some remarks on the theoretical impressions that psychoanalysis has developed on memory, insofar as it has an affinity with the unconscious. This with the purpose of expanding the referential framework in which first-person documentary filmmakers work, since a large number of these works have focused on creating personal audiovisual narratives where their memories are the launching point to talk about events that have become traumatic. This results in works loaded with affection, questions and meanings that, in our opinion, are channeled by unconscious determinations. For this we will briefly develop the classical conception of what has been catalogued as documentary cinema and then what is documentary cinema in the first person. We will also use some examples of first-person documentaries that can give us some clues that when working with the intimate, we can find unconscious activity.

Este trabajo busca hacer algunas puntualizaciones sobre las impresiones teóricas que el psicoanálisis ha desarrollado sobre la memoria, en tanto que ésta tiene afinidad con el inconsciente. Esto con el propósito de ampliar el marco referencial en el que trabajan las y los realizadores de documentales en primera persona, ya que gran cantidad de estos trabajos se han focalizado en crear narrativas audiovisuales personales donde sus memorias son el punto de lanza para hablar de eventos que han llegado a ser traumáticos. Lo cual desemboca en trabajos cargados de afectos, preguntas y significaciones que a nuestro parecer están encausadas por determinaciones inconscientes. Para esto desarrollaremos brevemente la concepción clásica de lo que se ha catalogado como cine documental y posteriormente lo que es el cine documental en primera persona. Utilizando además algunos ejemplos de documentales en primera persona que nos puedan dar algunas pistas de que al trabajar con lo íntimo, podemos encontrar actividad inconsciente.
