Corpo Presente(2024)

Corpo Presente Synopsis

A hybrid feature film that investigates contemporaneity through the body and its countless possibilities of expression and meanings. The film puts the body and the idea of the body in evidence, through metalanguage, articulation and confrontation of documentary, fictional and performative languages. The film follows the trajectory of the main character who uses her own body to formulate universes and investigate the meanings that are drawn in it. In a kind of subjective diary written on her skin, she records sensations and reflections, building relationships with thinkers, performances and archival materials, which lead her to other bodies and other stories.

Corpo Presente (2024) is a documentary film directed by Leonardo Barcelos, released on October 31, 2024 with a runtime of 1h 18m. It stars Ludmilla Ramalho, Ana Luísa Santos, Janaína Tábula and Guilherme Morais.
