We present a model to describe the first stages of the reorientation process of a nematic liquid crystal under the action of an obliquely incident optical field. The presence of hydrodynamic backflows associated with the reorientation in both, a homeotropic and a planar geometry, is explicitly taken

The Abelian Higgs model is the basis for a gauge covariant form of the distortion free energy for nematic liquid crystals. This is used to derive a new form of the Ericksen Leslie equations incorporating the dynamics of disclinations in nematic films. The zero liquid flow case is treated in detail f
