In preparation for the film, we have interviewed <strong>15 key Brazilian filmmakers, technicians and curators,<\/strong> all of whom are prominent figures of what became known as the Retomada do Cinema Brasileiro, or the <strong>Brazilian Film Revival<\/strong>, of the 1990s, which brought back to the agenda the question of national identity and Brazil\u2019s lingering social issues. The flourishing and diversification of independent filmmaking from that period onwards favoured not only a new approach to reality, but an emboldened use of the film medium that acknowledged and exposed its inextricable connections with other art and medial forms. The <em>Passages <\/em>project proposes that the intermedial method is thus strategically poised to shed a new light on the ways in which these films not only represented but interfered with and transformed the world around them. The chosen case studies hail from <strong>Pernambuco<\/strong>, in the northeast of Brazil, and from <strong>S\u00e3o Paulo<\/strong>, in the southeast, whose filmmakers, though stemming from disparate regional cultures, have been in a close artistic dialogue since the Brazilian Film Revival, demonstrating their shared values at a certain historical juncture and interconnectedness across Brazilian geography.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/research.reading.ac.uk\/intermidia\/passages\/\">See full page here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h1>Silent Movie Prologues from Brazil<\/h1>\n<p>With the Silent Movie Prologues from Brazil event now complete, see below for photos and videos of the event!<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Silent Movie Prologues from Brazil - Audience and Student Impact\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/VuEpEuZVljc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Silent Movie Prologues from Brazil - Full Show\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8ddKF5Wh6zE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n\n<div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/research.reading.ac.uk\/intermidia\/silent-movie-prologues-from-brazil\/\">For more information, see the original event page here.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h1>Reading Songs<\/h1>\n<p>In March 2018, as a part of the course &#8216;Brazilian Music and Film&#8217; at the Reading Film Theatre, students were asked to choose songs related to their own stories and use them to explore the intermedial relation between music and cinema.The models for this exercise were the films screened during the &#8216;Contemporary Brazilian Music Film Season&#8217; at the RFT, most notably Eduardo Coutinho&#8217;s documentary feature &#8216;Songs&#8217; (&#8216;As Can\u00e7\u00f5es&#8217;, 2011). \u00b4London Calling\u00b4, \u00b4Postcards from Italy\u00b4and &#8216;Route 66&#8217; were some of the tunes the students shared with the other people in the course.
