Synopsis Screenings 18 OCT / 17.15, São Jorge, Sala 3 Uma Maravilha Punk do Cinema Super 8mm A Punk Wonder of Super 8mm Cinema Pasi 'Sleeping' Myllymäki • 1976-2017 • Finland • c. 82' • DCP Portuguese Premiere A particular look at the whole history of experimental and avant-garde cinema in a single session. Myllymäki, inspired by Norman McLaren, worked with a breathtaking freedom and humour, exploring references to surrealism and lettrism, stop motion, animation and cameraless films, music videos accompanying irreverent songs by his band Sleeping & The Beds, satire or even dark political warnings about the nuclear threat. A profusion of treasures, a generous display of infinite imagination despite (or thanks to) the most limited means of amateur film production. Prices General - 5€ Reduced mobility - 5€
