Catalogue > At random

The idea of this film, which was shot in two of the Azores Islands, Pico and Faial, between 2015 and 2016, appeared by accident. Going back to the footage from a location scouting for a previous project that had been cancelled years before, another hidden film was found. The power of Nature and the role of chance in the creative process produce a narrative about friendship, cinema and the influence of the unexpected in artistic creation.
