Film screening
Muito Romântico
Distruktur (Melissa Dulius, Gustavo Jahn). BR/ GER, 2016, 72’, 16mm to HD
The adventure of Melissa and Gustavo starts aboard a red cargo ship crossing the Atlantic Ocean. It takes them to Berlin, a city of constant movement, where the old has to give space to the new. The couple finds a home and transforms it into the center of their own universe.
As time passes and seasons change, life and cinema become one and their room becomes an ever-changing stage, where friends are invited to play their own roles. In this state of transition Melissa and Gustavo lose sight of their path and their world starts to tremble. Until one day a cosmic portal appears in their home opening connections between the past, the present and the future, confronting the two travelers with extraordinary discoveries.
“Muito Romântico” is a stream that carries along hearts and minds. A playful rearrangement of experiences, memories and fantasies into a journey transcending space and time. Since its premiere at Berlinale in 2016 it has been shown in cinema and art spaces in 14 countries and 20 cities in Brazil.
