Sobre Tudo Sobre Nada

Life is not like the cinema: events don’t follow a sequence of set-up- conflict- resolution. What is here, rather, is the idea of cinema as (a way of) life. As filmed by a Mekas from the era of long distance relationships sponsored by Skype and low cost airlines, of post-Erasmus hangovers and the lack of certainties and beliefs, the (beautiful) diary recording on super 8 by Didio Pestana covers journeys between Berlin and Lisbon, relationships that shine and then fade away, job upheavals, moving house, family vicissitudes, states of mind as elusive and fleeting as the light that caresses the screen.
