The Age of Stone
( A Idade da Pedra )

Ana Vaz
2013 - 29 min - 16 mm - Couleur - France

A voyage into the far west of Brazil leads us to a monumental structure - petrified at the centre of the savannah. Inspired by the epic construction of the city of Brasília, the film uses this history to imagine it otherwise.
Through the geological traces that lead us to this monument, the film unearths a history of exploration, prophecy and myth.
