It focuses on the passage of time in people‟s life, considering the articulation of chronological time and kairos time. The researcher who has been a journalist since the 1980s interviewed six journalists with the written press of the city of São Paulo; firstly, with the purpose of analyzing, through the testimonies and her own experience, the relationship between these communication professionals and the way they age in the professional environment; secondly, in order to understand in a broader way the meanings of old age and aging in the social context. In the case of Journalism, in the 1980s and 1990s, the researcher could witness, in the condition of a novice in the area, remarkable events in the history of the press in Brazil, not only from the political point of view (post-dictatorship), but also from the technological standpoint, with a series of changes in the printed media sector, especially with the inclusion, in large newspaper companies, of digital machines, and, consequently, with the replacement of many editing professionals in a broader way. The tensions of that moment were observed in her working environment, and they led her to think for the first time about her aging and that of the group in which she was entering as a novice. A group of journalists that was divided in a sharp way, mainly due to the difference in generations that of the younger journalists (between 25 and 40 years of age) and that of the older journalists (50 years and older). In addition, the researcher could take a close look on how the journalists, mainly the older ones, dealt with the imposition of new technological equipment in the newsrooms and how they were seen and treated when they were not familiarized with the new working tools. As investigation strategy, a qualitative methodology was used, with semi-structured interviews directed at these six professionals, who were freely chosen by the researcher. The only criterion that was followed was that of interviewing people who are active in their professional career of journalist and aged 60 or older - the elderly person standard established by the UNO (United Nations Organization) / Neste trabalho, pretende-se discutir a velhice e o envelhecimento como condição pessoal e processo sociocultural. Toma-se como foco a passagem do tempo na vida de pessoas, considerando aí a articulação do tempo cronológico e do tempo kairós. A pesquisadora jornalista de profissão desde a década de 1980 entrevistou seis jornalistas da imprensa escrita da cidade de São Paulo; primeiramente, com o intuito de poder analisar, por intermédio dos depoimentos e de sua própria experiência, a relação entre esses profissionais da comunicação e o modo de envelhecerem no meio profissional; e, num segundo momento, com o objetivo de compreender, de forma mais abrangente, os significados da velhice e do envelhecimento no contexto social. No caso do Jornalismo, nas décadas de 1980 e 1990, a pesquisadora pôde presenciar, na condição de recém-formada da área, acontecimentos bem marcantes na história da grande imprensa no País, não somente do ponto de vista político (pós-ditadura), como do ponto de vista tecnológico, com uma série de mudanças no setor da mídia impressa, especialmente com a inserção, nas empresas de jornal de grande porte, de máquinas digitais e, por conseguinte, com a substituição de vários profissionais da edição de um modo mais amplo. As tensões daquele momento foram observadas no seu ambiente de trabalho, levando-a a pensar, pela primeira vez, no seu envelhecimento e o do grupo em que adentrava como recém-formada. Um grupo de jornalistas que se segmentava de forma contundente, cada vez mais, sobretudo, no referente à diferença de gerações a dos jornalistas mais jovens (entre 25 a 40 anos de idade) e a dos mais velhos (dos 50 anos em diante). Além disso, a pesquisadora pôde observar de perto como os jornalistas, em sua maioria os mais velhos, lidavam com a imposição das novas aparelhagens tecnológicas nas redações de jornal e como esses eram vistos e tratados quando não se familiarizavam com os novos instrumentos de trabalho. Como estratégia de investigação, optou-se por uma metodologia qualitativa, com o uso de entrevistas semiestruturadas, dirigidas a esses seis profissionais escolhidos pela pesquisadora de maneira livre, seguindo apenas o critério de reunir pessoas que se encontram na ativa de sua carreira profissional de jornalista e com mais de 60 anos de idade, padrão de pessoa idosa estabelecido pela ONU (Organização das Nações Unidas)

For almost a century, Virginia Woolf has enchanted readers all over the world with her novel about the gender fluid and time travelling character Orlando. British director Sally Potter adapted Orlando into film in 1992, and her adaptation has since gained immense fame and a continuous presence in world cinema. Potter's Orlando has been the object of a great deal of scholarly interest. However, previous research has predominantly focused on questions of gender and sexuality. Considerably underdiscussed is the film's fascinating conception of time and space. This thesis therefore sets out to analyze Sally Potter's Orlando in order to demonstrate how time and space is shaped in the film.  Theories developed by George Bluestone and André Bazin form the theoretical framework of this thesis. Through a close reading of the film, this thesis demonstrates that Potter establishes an unconventional temporality and spatiality through constructing a nonlinear, often contradictory temporality conveyed through contrasts between the organic and the fantastic, the real and the fictitious. Furthermore, the analysis finds that spatiality in Potter's Orlando is presented as multidimensional, allowing certain characters the possibility to inhabit a "fluid spatiality". Through presenting the past and the present as fused, Potter's Orlando can be understood through the optics of Bluestone's concept of "the flux of time" and Henri Bergsons la durée réelle. Simultaneously, breaks in the narrative presented through intertitles can be read as representing Bergsons idea of l'étendu, while also establishing a tangible spatiality.
