This documentary from filmmaker Guto Barra takes you beyond the 1960s bossa nova hit "The Girl from Ipanema" to explore how samba, Brazilectro and other Brazilian music styles have long captivated audiences and influenced musicians around the world. Mixing archival footage, fresh performances and interviews with leaders in the global music scene, Barra examines why Brazil's music consistently transcends boundaries of time and musical taste.

This documentary focuses on The Public Theater’s 2017 Public Works musical production of As You Like It, which was performed by 200 New Yorkers of all ages and boroughs, and was named one of the Top Ten shows of 2017 by The New York Times. Co-adapted by Shaina Taub and Laurie Woolery, with music and lyrics by Shaina Taub, original choreography by Sonya Tayeh, and direction by Laurie Woolery, As You Like It was set to be remounted as part of the 2020 Free Shakespeare in the Park season, but those plans were halted by the COVID-19 pandemic. This film tracks the creation of As You Like It and the ways this resilient community has banded together amidst the crises of 2020.

Geografia da Arte
Guto Barra, Tatiana Issa
The series Geografia da Arte analyzes the relation between artists and the places that inspire them. Two episodes will be screened. In "Ragnar Kjartansson + Iceland", one of the most important artists of contemporary art prepares a retrospective at the Reykjavík Museum of Art, exploring his connection with the country's culture. In "Henri Cartier-Bresson + India" we discover how the photographer met Mahatma Gandhi in 1948. His camera recorded the leader’s last appearance on night before his assassination. The photographs helped catapult Cartier-Bresson to international fame as a photojournalist.
