Countries Portugal

Synopsis
A sequence of 8 mm familiar footage is the point of departure of a video about my relationship with an imaginary territory – the town of Muidumbe, in Mozambique, in 1960. I transformed myself into my grandmother to explore and deconstruct the discursive lapses between text and image and to search for the signs of an obsessive territory.
