EDITORIAL - 43rd MOSTRA
The artwork of the 43rd Mostra takes us to the playful and sweet universe of Nina Pandolfo. For the Brazilian artist, cinema starts in the head, and ideas, as well as fantasy, come from the head and spread themselves around the world. The nature girl in our pôster may seem to carry some naivety in these rough times, but she also seems to have ancient wisdom. The DNA of Brazil is also found in the film that opens Mostra this year. Wasp Network is a Brazilian production based on the book The Last Soldiers of the Cold War, written by Fernando Morais. Mostra will pay tribute to the film’s French director, Olivier Assayas, by awarding him with the Leon Cakoff Prize and screening his many thought provoking films as part of a retrospective of his career. Israeli filmmaker Amos Gitai will also receive the Leon Cakoff Prize, and Mostra will screen two of his most emblematic films: Berlin-Jerusalem, which is celebrating its 30th anniversary, and Kadosh, which is turning 20. Gitai will also release Em Tempos como Estes, a book that gathers correspondence from his mother, Efratia, sent between 1929 and 1994. The Humanity Award will be presented to Palestinian filmmaker Elia Suleiman. The tribute will include two of his most importante films, Divine Intervention and Chronicle of a Disappearance, as well as his most recent one, It Must Be Heaven, which received a Special Mention at the Cannes Film Festival. Mariette Rissenbeek, current Executive Director of the Berlin International Film Festival, selected titles that were particularly memorable during her 16 years at the helm of German Films and which provide an overview of Germany’s recent production. German cinema will also be present at Mostra with The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, a masterpiece of German expressionism and this year’s choice for the traditional outdoor screening at Ibirapuera Park. As in recent years, the musical score will be performed live by the Brazil Jazz Symphony, once again conducted by maestro João Maurício Galindo. The history and origin of cinema will be a part of Masp’s free span programme. Restored copies of George Méliès films and two animated shorts from the early days of Brazilian cinema will be screened with live music on October 27th, in celebration of the World Day of Audiovisual Heritage. Mostra will also pay tribute to film critic Rubens Ewald Filho, who died this year, by screening The Wizard of Oz, one of his favourite films, at Masp’s free span. Brazilian filmmaker Luiz Rosemberg Filho, who also died in 2019, will be remembered by the screening of his last film, Jester. Mostra will also present O Jardim das Espumas and Crônica de um Industrial, two of his most important films. Speaking of memory, Mostra will celebrate the 25th anniversary of a masterpiece of contemporary cinema: Satantango, by Hungarian director Béla Tarr. The festival will screen a restored copy of the film. This has been an exceptional year for Brazilian cinema, and Theatro Municipal will screen a selection of films that represented our country at major film festivals abroad, including Cannes, Toronto, Sundance and Venice. There is a strong focus on Brazilian cinema, but Mostra will also present the newest films by great masters of international cinema, which were celebrated in the festival circuit and have been very anticipated by the Brazilian audience. The programme will include the movies that won the main awards in Cannes, Berlin and San Sebastián. At the same time, with the New Directors Competition Mostra continues to take a close look at filmmakers making their first films. The festival is also always open to new languages, giving space to virtual reality films, and will innovate by turning the cycle Memórias do Cinema into a podcast. In addition to this year’s guests, the podcast will include the testimonials of Eduardo Coutinho, Hector Babenco and Rubens Ewald Filho. The III Forum Mostra will again bring artists, producers, government workers and students together to think about the creative, political and market aspects of the audiovisual sector. If the opening film of Mostra has Brazilian DNA, so does the closing film: Two Popes, the anticipated return of Fernando Meirelles to directing feature films. It is an international production which shows us that cinema goes beyond borders, just like the balloons of our nature girl. We are thankful to our sponsors for their confidence and for making another great Mostra with us. And we are also grateful to our audience for another year in their company. Renata de Almeida and the team of the 43rd Mostra
