Luís Urbano

A Yellow Animal

Obsessed with questions about his past, a bankrupt, white Brazilian filmmaker undertakes an epic journey from Brazil to Mozambique and Portugal. This melancholic fable mixes animation, live-action, voice-overs, genres, and continents to explore Brazil's colonial past.

Sizígia

Filmed in 2012 at Piscina das Marés, a building designed by Álvaro Siza Vieira (renowned Portuguese architect) in the early 60's of the 20th century, “SIZIGIA” seeks to use moving images, not only as a method of representing architecture, but as a process of space investigation that explores its narrative qualities and the sense of place created by use, the materials, the light and the sound.
