Path to the Stars

The film Path to the Stars follows the journey of a Heroine from sunrise to sunset, confronted by her own shadow and by different temporalities and micro-narratives, proposing a counter-narrative composed of the complex biographies that overlap and interact: the past and the anti-colonial freedom fighters, the uncertainty of the present and the desire to belong, and projection of the future and the desire to reach a symbiosis with nature and to unfold the ecological crisis that destroys our nature. The central piece works structurally and conceptually as a river from which branches and layers of stories and metaphors unfold.  

At a time when humanity is facing various challenges such as increased discrimination, global warming, wars and ecological disasters, Path to the Stars functions as an opportunity to share and seek future directions through creative reflection and imagination.

The exhibition is accompanied by a publication with a foreword by Vittorio Urbani and texts by Paula Nascimento, Ana Nolasco, Marisa Moorman, and Yara Nakahanda Monteiro.
