Quilombo, Continuum

Synopsis

How to escape from a system in which there is no outside? Revisiting audiovisual archives, the film interrupts the rhetoric of the myth of racial democracy in Brazil through traces of ancestral and present sounds and images. In a spiralling temporality, the film experiments, speculates, and confabulates nearby with the multitude of voices, practices, and registers through which the quilombo is reactivated and reinvented today
