An invitation to the abyss joined by the company of Antonin Artaud and Robert Walser, familiar and unknown - unheimlich. The mystery of memory and love beyond the soul; unexpected and strange agony; what formerly returns. Poetic lapses and bonds from a movie poem of found footage and a documentary essay, between an experimental Japanese movie (1926) and a North American industrial movie (2010).

Sem Título #6: O Inquietanto

Experimental documentary about the life and work of obscure samba musician Vassourinha (1923-1942), born in São Paulo, who only recorded six 78rpm records, dying at 19.

Vassourinha: The Voice and The Void

The documentary’s starting point is the discovery and restoration of a rare and unknown photography reel reproduced from a mutoscope film, made in 1901 in London, about Santos Dumont (1873 – 1932). The work approaches historic and artistic aspects from the beginning of Cinema (pre cinema, variety film) and a cinema that appropriates archive material (found footage, recycled films), through interviews, documents, visual metaphors and the articulation of a poetic essay.
