Fliparacatu: Imagining other futures is a way of looking at the present, according to Paulliny Tort and Sérgio Abranches

During the panel "Speculative fiction between the past and the future" at the 4th Fliparacatu, authors Paulliny Tort and Sérgio Abranches discussed how literary imagination serves as a tool for understanding the present, and not just as an escape from reality. Drawing from their works — "Os Imortais" and "A Franja do Fim do Mundo" — the writers explored themes such as the climate crisis, social inequalities, and criticism of the neoliberal model that reduces human existence to productivity. Both argued that imagining futures, whether by returning to prehistory or projecting dystopias, is a way of exercising autonomy and making visible issues that the present insists on hiding, affirming that literature functions as a rehearsal space for collectively thinking about what kind of society one intends to build.
