  • SYNOPSIS
    Encounters is an Essay documentary that portrays the journey of a Brazilian woman into becoming a film director in China. A reflective poetic experience about points of contact between Brazilian and Chinese culture, as well as about the relation between the mode of production and the transmission of cultural traditions, so that, based on human capacity to relate to what is apparently alien to him, it it is possible to recognize some elements that outline the existence of a Brazilian culture composed by the encounter with other and different cultures, the power of its singular realization and the universality that also constitutes it.
