Miami-Cuba 2021
Miami-Cuba is an audiovisual immersion through the Historic Center of João Pessoa, with brief trips to symbolic places along its shore. In particular, the recently verticalized Altiplano district, where his current urban development project seems to be heading. Its cinematographic device is the occupation of an apartment in the 18th floor building, the first skyscraper and initial landmark of modernization in the capital. Work that also configures a type of sentinel in this central region of the city, listed as a historical heritage shortly after its construction. A performative documentary that walks with pre-researched characters and others who were found in the journey of recordings… Expressive people from the city, known and/or anonymous, who ramble about their urban experiences, resisting, ways of living and living, existing .

Letter Beyond the Walls 2019    star_border 8.2
Letter Beyond the Walls reconstructs the trajectory of HIV and AIDS with a focus on Brazil, through interviews with doctors, activists, patients and other actors, in addition to extensive archival material. From the initial panic to awareness campaigns, passing through the stigma imposed on people living with HIV, the documentary shows how society faced this epidemic in its deadliest phase over more than two decades. With this historical approach as its base, the film looks at the way HIV is viewed in today's society, revealing a picture of persistent misinformation and prejudice, which especially affects Brazil’s most historically vulnerable populations.
