Video installation, 2008

Ressaca is a feature film on the border between cinema and live performance, inspired by the work of VJs that produce real time visuals to electronic music. The project consists of a story composed of more than 120 short sequences and dealing with the coming of age of a teenager during the late eighties in Brazil. The selection and order of these sequences is not pre-determined but will be edited live by the director in every section.

This project is part of the cooperation with the Instituto Sergio Motta.
