PROJECTS

• O Brasil Manifestado - És Tu, Brasil II - Documentary. Feature film. Screenplay and direction by Murilo Salles. Actually in pre-production. Shooting 2nd semester of 2007.

The country idealized in its major Declarations. A fiction documentary.

• O Fim e os meios - Fiction. Feature film. Principal Photography expected for 2008. ANCINE’s Incentive to the Quality of the Brazilian Cinema Award. Synopsis: "O Fim e os meios" is a thriller. A Brazilian thriller without weapons. It is also a movie of disclosures. A movie of divergences. A movie about cruelty. A political movie. A love story. With "O Fim e os Meios", we recover the need to view the micro and macro with surgical precision lenses and complex view. Looking is the issue of the cinema. Here we want to look at the characters and see Brazil. Looking at the tip of the iceberg and seeing the bottom underwater. The metaphoric return of those with inferiority complex. A Brazilian thriller without weapons. Even better, an almost diary of a coward. Who tries to control his narrative at any price. But fortunately it escapes him. • À Margem da Linha - Fiction. Feature Film. Based on the novel with the same title by Paulo Rodrigues published by Editora Cosac & Naif Project under development and screenplay writing ANCINE’s Incentive to the Quality of the Brazilian Cinema Award. Synopsis: Guri & Mano’s artifice in search of a subtle balance between the sublime and its distresses. "À Margem da Linha" tells the story of two brothers, Mano, 16, and Guri, 11, who obstinately follow the train tracks, sometimes fleeting and sometimes in search of reasons and affections to exist and continue their journey.

For her what really matters is building her path as an act of reassuring her singularity. Her life is her narrative. Creating a narrative worthy of writing about herself.

For Camila, life blossoms from the scars originated in her process of giving herself absolutely and vertiginously. • 2005. ÁRIDO MOVIE - Fiction.

Release Date: April 14 200 No. of viewers per copy: 4.460 Distributed by: Europa Filmes 10º Cine PE, April 2006 Best Film / "Critics Award" / Director Award to Lírio Ferreira / Cinematography Award to Murilo Salles / Film Editor Award to Vânia Debs / Supporting Actor Award to Selton Mello 10th Brazilian Film Festival of Miami, June 2006 Best Director: Lírio Ferreira Synopsis: The Brazilian Northeast backlands, more precisely the Rocha Valley, is the real and symbolic territory of "ÁRIDO MOVIE", a movie that narrates many stories using the same strategy of the backlands goats that will follow any path in search of water. "Árido Movie" tells the story of Jonas, who was taken away from his family at a young age and works in São Paulo, the largest city in Latin America, hosting a weather forecast TV program in a national TV network. His father’s unexpected murder takes him by surprise, since he’s been far away from his family for a long time and doesn’t have much contact with them. His relationship with his family is limited to occasional phone calls to his mother Stella, long separated from his father, who lives alone in Recife. His father’s funeral compels him to return to his roots from which he has long been separated. However, Jonas ignores the real reason behind his return: his grandmother Dona Carmo, chooses him to seek revenge for her favorite son’s death and restore the family honor. Jonas’ existential plunge into the dry landscape of the backlands is followed from a distance by his college friends: Bob, Zaca, and Vera, and closely by Soledad, a videomaker who is making a documentary about the importance of water as an element of social transformation and religious purification. Soledad is on the track of "Meu Velho", a religious cult leader who uses the "abstractous" water, stored in his underground tanks, to purify and save the soul of his faithful followers. During his trip back, Jonas faces elements that constitute the biomorphic archetypes of the Brazilian backlands. Those are psychics; underground water explorers; religious devouts; and people, such as Indian Zé Elétrico, a mix of a tire repairman and a philosopher, who lives in a gas station at the city entrance, where the main actions happen, and is a reference to Wedja and Jurandir, remaining Indians from the same tribe. When he arrives in Rocha, his birthplace, Jonas smells vengeance in the air. His father’s funeral is filled with ambiguous emotions. Feelings that range from a plea for peace to a spectrum of vengeance. Here Jonas discovers his misfortune: the weight of being the heir to a reality that he thought was no longer his. The inheritance is also exhaustively coveted by Márcio Greyck, Lázaro’s bastard son, and by Salustiano, Jonas’ uncle. Together they try to stop Dona Carmo’s intentions of making her grandson the natural and rightful heir of the clan. After drinking some hallucinogenic tea, made of a plant used by the Indians in rituals for contacting their gods, and having a psychedelic experience in the middle of the Rocha Valley, Jonas returns to the gas station where Zé Elétrico is murdered by Wedja or is it his imagination still under the effect of the tea that Jurema gave him? "Árido Movie" describes scarcity in a universe where modernity plants, next to the “molasses grass”, its cellular phone and Internet provider towers, while keeping a challenge, crime and punishment, in order to recover a more existentialist motto – the access to the oldest of the riches: water. • 2003.
