São Paulo – history timelines are overlapped into one single block of cement with its windowless facades, brutal containers to personal narratives. Architecture curators wonder whether the new temporary, analogous to the development of modernism, it might become the new modus operandi soon.
    Forest – the nature is sublime, empty and stormy. It is the natural land of the imagination where we assemble ourselves to resist to the silence of the universe, in order not to succumb to the pure panic and the threat of dissolution. At first glance the spectator might not acknowledge the frame’s mutation. As time lapses, one will realize that we are moving towards a figure at the center of the image.


It was developed under the frame of a commission by CPH:LAB, a talent development program that pairs filmmakers from different geographies, promoted by CPH:DOX, International Documentary Film Festival, Copenhagen (6-16 November 2014)
