This article addresses the consumption and appropriation of audiovisual media in Colombia, Mexico and Argentina, in order to highlight the impact on political subjectivities and memory processes in young university students. For this, the starting point was the questioning of how audiovisual media impact on the reconfiguration of collective memories and political subjectivities of young people in the context of the digital era. The study was conducted in 2020 from a qualitative methodological perspective, using as methods virtual ethnography and montage theory, coming from research in the arts, which gives way to a reflection of young people from the creation of an audiovisual discourse, as an alternative route for understanding the modes of construction of collective memory, where art becomes a possible way out that allows them space for the reconfiguration of a wounded memory that needs to be healed and, also, decentralizes the outlook to approach other discourses and other possible representations of the reality of young people in the Latin American context.

Keywords : Memory; Political Violence; Youth; Audiovisual Media; Latin America.
