Poti Pati

2018

A slow, hypnotic art film that plays like a dream, blurring the line between performer, observer and memory.

Directed by
Pedro Sena Nunes
Starring
Ana Rita Barata, Natália Luiza
Overview
Poti Pati is a film based on a monologue that a character has with himself—or with his double—the text challenges the characters, brings them closer together, punctuating it with body movement. The materiality of time is sought in the details of space and in the imaginary functioning of obsolete machines. Poti Pati expresses, in the polysemy of the monologue and in the migration of images between the observer and the observed, a challenge to the viewer-observer whose cinematic references are summoned.
