Just as a painter applies raw paint on a canvas, a filmmaker applies light(and other matters) on film strip. This hand-picked program features works produced at artist-run film labs (film laboratories by artists, for artists) scattered throughout the country, born from the vast and diverse geopolitical territories of Brazil. The relationship of physical sensations with plants and nature/ culture (humans), film-skin profaned as a tangible material, event that comes into being as ephemeral situation when it passes through a projector.

We are all very different inhabiting disparate world of thoughts. This retrospective called Elas Por Trás Das Câmeras (aka Women Behind Cameras) showcases works of several women video artists and filmmakers from Brazil. Each of them discerns the world in a distinctively different and divergent way. When they move they also move their world. What surrounds them at each instant is a part of a private universe that advances with them.
