Mississipis

2023 · 86 min · ★ 9.0 · Documentary

In the countryside of Portugal, groups of strangers found themselves on an artistic and existential journey: the creation of a show that intersects contemporary and traditional dance. The director films these encounters over ten years. He evokes memories, dialogues with life, peeks into the unfathomable in himself and in each character. Trying to hold time, MISSISSIPIS is a manifesto on the vital importance of the encounter – with others, but also of each person with themselves.

Directed by António-Pedro
