See the Brazil that even Brazilians don't know. Colors, festivals, regional challenges and unique histories from the most remote corners of a country that is big in every way.

A filmic encounter with Brazil, which Aurand visited for the first time in September 2022 for screenings of her films and Margaret Tait’s in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. Aurand’s 16mm films are portraits of people and place, often prompted by the discovery and experience of travel. As George Clark has written, the journey is a cornerstone of Aurand’s filmmaking: “Her work builds out from fragments, detours, refrains and returns; her camera picks up discarded gestures and suspends them in time. Films are always moving, always fleeting, Aurand’s work reminds us. These qualities are as fundamental to lived experience as they are to the cinema. Throughout Ute Aurand’s work we encounter a world animated by her mobile and dynamic camera, following, chasing, leading and dissecting space.” 　　源自：https://opencitylondon.com/events/combined-programme-the-moon-around-the-house/

A low-to-the-ground car, equipped with spoked wheels, a hydraulic suspension system, plus a glossy paint job. And what's more: it bounces. To own one of these extravagant rides is a dream come true to a whole lot of people. But it's not only about affording it. You have to earn it. This is the world we're introduced to on Lowrider Brazil, as we're taken to Vida Real and see what it's like at Brazil's pioneering lowrider car club. The mastermind in charge of getting the club in full gear is Tatá, joined by his sidekicks Japonês and Alemão. Tatá is known for his no-nonsense approach towards newcomers. Japonês is a hot-headed auto mechanic. As for Alemão, he's a true chicano, and specializes in lowrider bike projects. The everyday challenges faced by these heroes and their ties with other lowrider aficionados are given special attention in a setting marked by a strict moral code, where everyone's devoted to a common passion: building lowrider cars and bikes.
