Landscape Film, Roberto Burle Marx

The life and work of Roberto Burle Marx (1909-1994) are portrayed in this documentary. The film presents his ideas and memories in a succession of sensory landscapes on the painter, sculptor and landscaper’s trajectory: Burle Marx projected squares and gardens in cities like Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Brasília and Recife —most of them is marked by native plants of Brazil, that, together, make up wavy shapes.
