Cine Rabeca

Directed by Marcia Mansu

2022 – 55'

Synopsis

Time dimensions emerge from the relation between the visible and the imagined, between memory and the experience of the present. A unique place emerges through the entanglement of music and archive footage. The cine-concert moves across the soundscape of Brazilian sugar cane fields intertwining live soundtrack with images produced by artists and ethnographers between 1991-2009. On stage, Luiz Paixão and Renata Rosa take part in a cinematographic reencounter with their own trajectories, improvise with their rabecas and recreate themselves.
