About Pictures of Ghosts (Retratos Fantasmas)

BRASIL: A SLOW FILM FESTIVAL Opening screening

Organised by Cinemaattic

Supported by the Consulate General of Brazil in Edinburgh, The Guimarães Rosa Institute and Screen Scotland.

A multidimensional journey through time, sound, architecture and filmmaking, set in the city of Recife. Kleber Mendonça Filho explores his home city through the great movie theatres which played such a vital role in fostering his love for the medium.

Combining archive documentary, mystery, film clips and personal memories, Pictures of Ghosts is a moving and playful film that examines both the architectural and social structures of his home city and his relationship to cinema and the spaces it inhabits.
