Synopsis
Driven by the will to give life and the realisation that the spiral of time cannot be avoided, an abyssal record guided by more-than-human connections journeys through inner landscapes and genuine conversations to restore the flow of metamorphosis: leaping from being to being as new ways of saying I.
Biography and Films
Ainá Xisto (Fortaleza, 1991) is a filmmaker and visual artist with an MA in Cinema from the School of Arts at the Universidade Católica Portuguesa. She uses her creations as psychomagical instruments, updating connections from time immemorial and sharing pedagogies and imaginaries of transmutation, health, and creativity. From the intimate, her works overflow with the essence of the inexplicable, a manifesto of a future that is already here, pregnant with different ways of living both inside and outside of time.
