Synopsis

The viper is deaf and the scorpion can’t see, so it is and so shall be, the same way the countryside is peaceful and the city bustling and the human being impossible to satisfy. Lacrau demands the return “to the curve where man got lost” in a journey from the city towards nature.

MUBI's take

The first film by João Vladimiro is a slow-burning documentary that poetically reflects on the complex relationship between man and nature. Shot by Pedro Pinho (The Nothing Factory), this deliberately meditative film focuses its lens on slowness, sensations, and the vivid, rural surroundings.
