Abstract
True crime, at the crossroads of narrative, documentary and art, is crime fact that looks like crime fiction. Through the case study of Making a Murderer (2015), the intent of this paper is to provide a theoretical framework for this genre, considering it as a vehicle for social transformation. More precisely, by adopting the perspective of Victor Turner, its goal is to focus attention on the delicate intersection of two levels: The sacred and official legal procedure (the liminal) and the critical, artistic and parallel interests of the true crime (the liminoid).File | Dimensione | Formato | |
