Abstract

The Secret Life of Words and Elegy by Isabel Coixet are chosen here as examples of the ethical attitudes and concerns of the director. Special attention is paid to the possible meaning of silence in the case of The Secret, and to the transformation of the male gaze in Elegy. In both cases, Coixet expresses her ideas through affects as a way to reach the kind of consciousness that links emotions and ethics.
