2000 Nordestes: O que Era Realidade Não É Mais uma Realidade(pt)

From Ceará to Bahia, passing through Rio Grande do Norte, Paraíba and Pernambuco (and with the counterpoint of the Northeastern diaspora in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro), the documentary seeks to survey the contemporary Northeastern imaginary: a mixture of the most rich or archaic regional traditions with influences from the more modern mass culture of the era of globalization.

The Endless Summer(en)

Bruce Brown's The Endless Summer is one of the first and most influential surf movies of all time. The film documents American surfers Mike Hynson and Robert August as they travel the world during California’s winter (which, back in 1965 was off-season for surfing) in search of the perfect wave and ultimately, an endless summer.

Land Without Bread(es)

An exploration —manipulated and staged— of life in Las Hurdes, in the province of Cáceres, in Extremadura, Spain, as it was in 1932. Insalubrity, misery and lack of opportunities provoke the emigration of young people and the solitude of those who remain in the desolation of one of the poorest and least developed Spanish regions at that time. (Silent short, voiced in 1937 and 1996.)

A detailed chronicle of the famous 1969 tour of the United States by the British rock band The Rolling Stones, which culminated with the disastrous and tragic concert held on December 6 at the Altamont Speedway Free Festival, an event of historical significance, as it marked the end of an era: the generation of peace and love suddenly became the generation of disillusionment.

Primary(en)

Primary is a documentary film about the primary elections between John F. Kennedy and Hubert Humphrey in 1960. Primary is the first documentary to use light equipment in order to follow their subjects in a more intimate filmmaking style. This unconventional way of filming created a new look for documentary films where the camera’s lens was right in the middle of what ever drama was occurring. Preserved by the Academy Film Archive in partnership with The Film Foundation in 1998.

Dont Look Back(en)

Hypnosis(pt)

7’30” | DV | Colour | 2001 | Brazil Screening Format: DV Filming Format: Super 8 Original Soundtrack: O Grivo Directed, Photographed and Edited by: Cao Guimarães The illusion of an hypnosis emerges from the serenity of a geometrical succession of forms. In this geometrical 'mini-drama' the pathos is created by colors in movement and the languorous and repetitive beat of a piano.

Who Will Teach Me the Half of the Character(cs)

Follows the footsteps of former Czechoslovak – Vietnamese cooperation and seeks to sum up its importance, regardless of its close political aspects, for lives of few particular Vietnamese citizens and also to report on contemporary Vietnam through experience of local people, who surprisingly aren’t separated from Czech by language barrier.

The Rite of Spring(cs)

This film came into being on a farm in the village of Hakushu, Min Tanaka's home. Min Tanaka is a very distinctive personality of Japanese alternative theatre in which the mind questions the tongue and so the body becomes the tongue. Min Tanaka's dance is able to speak even to those who know nothing about Japan and Japanese art. Perhaps it is because, on their road to discovery, Min and his dancers probe deep down to the roots of the culture of all peoples, to the time when we were not yet Europeans and they were not Japanese.
