Sumario:This work analyzes the representation that El pejesapo (2007) of José Luís Sepúlveda makes of the category of the marginal popular character, in the context of the so called cinema of marginalization. The thesis postulates that such representation is performed through the dismantling of the structure of the formation or learning story (bildungsroman), considered as emblematic gender of modern culture. In this way, in this cinematographic tale the central categories that sustain the discourse on modernity such as progress, rationality, character, among others, are constantly made problematic. This implies a tenacious questioning of a traditional  form of making cinema through the rescue of procedures that violate the purism of certain registers, such as the hybridization, the direct cinema and the documentary technique, which gives as a result the derogation of the “fictional pact” that we are used to, straining even more the relations between truth and fiction.
