Henrique Pêra

A dreamlike journey seen through the eyes of a trans-human as well as a kino-symphony of voices from the multiple personas of Fernando Pessoa, Lisbon Revisited shows alternative ways of looking at and hearing the city. Celebrating its greatest phantom and confronting his ambiguous and pervasive sexuality, the film is spoken in the three languages in which Pessoa wrote, Portuguese, English and French.

New film directed by Edgar Pêra.

Dans la ville millénaire de Guimarães, trois réalisateurs renommés, Peter Greenaway, Edgar Pêra, Jean-Luc Godard, explorent la 3D et son influence sur notre perception du cinéma. Surimpression et superposition des images pour Peter Greenaway dans « Just in Time », interrogation ludique sur le nouveau spectateur de cinéma pour Edgar Pêra avec « Cinesapiens », esquisse d'une histoire du cinéma en 3D pour Jean-Luc Godard dans « Les Trois Désastres ».

A kino-investigation about spectatorship, a continuous conversation between different kinds of spectators: which one is more cinema: Citizen Kane on a mobile phone or a football game projected in a cinema theatre? What is the cinema of uncertainty? How many kinds of amazement exist? Does fear and belief precede amazement? What are the rights and duties of the spectator? Is the essay film a manifesto against voyeurism? Should spectators be paid? What amazes the spectator of this day and age?
