Dirs. G race Passô\, Ricardo Alves\, Jr. 2019\, 50 mins. In Portuguese with Englis h subtitles. One of Brazil’s most brilliant contemporary dramaturgs and ac tors\, Grace Passô—known for starring in such films as André Novais Olivei ra’s Long Way Home and Mauríio Martins and Gabriel Martins’s In the Heart of the World—co-directs with Alves\, Jr. a film adaptation of her internat ionally touring drama\, Wandering Flesh. On an empty stage\, a disembodied voice speaks of a case of spirit possession\, or a reincarnation. Passô a cts as the bodily host for the erudite\, angry spirit—and slowly\, miracul ously\, conducts the viewer into a world poisoned by arbitrary notions of gender\, sex\, and race\, which end in violence. \n\n\n Mangrove (Dir. Ama ranta Cesar\, 2018\, 22 mins.) and Pattaki (Dir. Everlane Morães\, 2018\, 20 mins.) Shot in a traditional quilombo of the descendants of African sla ves\, Mangrove beautifully captures the affirmative power of ancestry and rural communities\, but also the distant pull of city life. Meanwhile the nocturnal Pattaki\, which Morães filmed in Cuba\, transports us into a dre amlike world permeated by the Yoruba sea spirit\, Yemaya (North American p remiere at the Sundance Film Festival 2020). \n\n\n Tickets: $15 ($11 seni ors and students / $9 youth (ages 3–17) / free or discounted for Museum me mbers.
