Trailers

Por causa das exigências caprichosas dos festivais de cinema, comecei a fazer trailers para as minhas curtas-metragens. Enfim, um trailer de uma curta-metragem pode parecer nada mais que a síntese de uma síntese, mas a verdade é que me divirto bastante a fazer estas pequenas montagens alternativas de cada projeto, aproveitando para lançar discretas pistas para a sua leitura.

Because of the whimsical demands of film festivals, I started making trailers for my short films. Admittedly, a trailer for a short film might seem like nothing more than a summary of a summary, but the truth is that I really enjoy putting together these small alternative edits of each project, using them as an opportunity to drop subtle hints for their interpretation.

The brilliance of religious art

"Evocation" (also known as "Tête du Christ" or "Inspiration d'une mosaïque à Ravenne") by Odilon Redon

2023

A tristeza infinita que me inspira a frequência de um rito religioso cristão é inversamente proporcional à embriaguez baudelairiana que extraio de iluminuras, vitrais, ícones ortodoxos, corais de J. S. Bach, textos de Etty Hillesum ou filmes de Carl Dreyer. 

Fosse qual fosse o lugar de sentido que o projeto "Pegada luminosa" me permitisse atingir, o seu ponto de partida, o seu motor, foi tão-somente esta agitação peculiar da minha erótica.

As filmagens terminaram a 11 de maio.

The infinite sadness instilled in me by the attendance of a Christian rite is inversely proportional to the Baudelairean intoxication that I derive from illuminated manuscripts, stained glass windows, orthodox icons, chorales by J. S. Bach, texts by Etty Hillesum or films by Carl Dreyer.

Whatever scope of meaning the "Light footprint" project eventually leads me to, its starting point, its drive, was just this peculiar agitation of my erotica.

Filming ended on May 11th.
