Faced with the question of whether global cinema can make affective statements about precariousness, it is proposed to investigate, from the analysis of some scenes and the forms of production of the films Roma (2018, Alfonso Cuarón) and Nomandland (2020, Chloé Zhao), the ways to present and represent issues linked to poverty, violence and the proximity of death. The relationships that arise from the work carried out by women from specific temporal and geographical perspectives allow us to enter textual proposals that, from abundant material resources, can produce an affective, aesthetic and ethical discourse on the precarious. Este artículo reflexiona sobre la emergencia de la precariedad en el cine global y sobre aquello que en la actualidad permite al cine hacerse político para, de este modo, considerar a los sujetos que por las condiciones actuales del neoliberalismo son relegados al borde del abismo. Ante la pregunta de si el cine global puede hacer declaraciones afectivas sobre la precariedad, se propone indagar desde el análisis de algunas escenas y las formas de producción de los filmes Roma (2018, Alfonso Cuarón) y Nomandland (2020, Chloé Zhao) las maneras de presentar y representar cuestiones ligadas a la pobreza, la violencia y la proximidad de la muerte. Las relaciones que surgen del trabajo realizado por mujeres desde perspectivas temporales y geográficas específicas permiten ingresar a propuestas textuales que, desde recursos materiales abundantes, se pueden producir un discurso afectivo, estético y ético sobre lo precario.
