| Sumario: | The lacanian concept of extimacy allows to do a reading about the present pandemic situation, with the consequent lockdown of the subjects “socially isolated”.

The Netflix series Sense 8 is taken as the setting that allows these concepts to belinked, from a logic posed as a fiction of a common enjoyment of bodies. |
