DOCUMENTARY
Silent Carnival | Carnaval do Silêncio
Silent Carnival is a 1-hour documentary about the Caboclo de Lança, a mythical figure portrayed by the people who live in Zona da Mata, located in the countryside of Pernambuco, Brazil.
They’re a special kind of performative guardian of their village, that appears during Carnival time. Becoming a Caboclo involves a mixture of religious and psychedelic factors.
The purpose is to show the importance of this figure to the people in the village and how its performance is meaningful to them.
My roles in this project were picture editing, colour grading, and sound editing.
