OUTDOOR DREAMS
Direction: Mariana Fagundes
Project Status: Completed
Genre: Short documentary film | 12'41'' | 2006
Production: Noctua
Synopsis
The ethnographic documentary presents a critical view on the situation of immigrants in the English capital. In “Outdoor Dreams”, the narrative built by the camera provides us a sensitive encounter with individuals who silently communicate their dreams and their desire to be part of the city on a daily basis. We get to know a little about the human behind the big advertiser banners. People of different nationalities sharing desires, ambitions, needs, issues and conflicts, living in a culture different from theirs, waiting and looking for better opportunities.
