In this paper, we will analyze some artistic aspects that compose the mise-en-scène of the film The Clown, especially the costumes and the framing of the characters in order to understand how these elements work together in the visual composition of a nostalgic narrative that takes place in a vague historical time and compressed by the mountainous landscape of Minas Gerais. Given the critical and popular reception the film received, it is important to understand the importance of the plastic elements in developing a successful South American work that dialogues with international contemporary cinema.
