Of a simplifying, subjective and selective nature, shared representations of national histories impact the construction of social memory and the development of a common worldview. A conversation between Janaina Wagner (Brazil), Sofia Borges (Portugal) and TANG Han (China), mediated by Siddharta Perez (Philippines), reflects on the historical legacy as a factor in the construction of identity and social action.

The conversation was part of the Public Programs of the 22nd Sesc_Videobrasil Biennial.
