"The reassembled fragments of a film that never was, reflecting on exile from Brazil from distant lands."
Released 2 years ago in 2024. Adrift Potentials is a documentary/history film. directed by Leonardo Pirondi. At just 11 minutes, it's a tight, focused story.
Synopsis
This pseudo diary film is made of found materials from an unfinished 16mm film. Potenciais à Deriva is a film started by a Brazilian artist under a pseudonym while living in exile in Los Angeles, California. Isolated shots and previously assembled scenes reveal an intention to create a mysterious film comprised of disembodied interviews, empty rooms, radio recordings, soccer games, and sudden apparitions of the filmmaker that slowly ruminates on Brazil's colonial past, North American Imperialism and the military dictatorship of the time in a paranoid and anxious manner. Be aware that the film's final version never came to exist. This version presented is my mere attempt to produce a film with these otherwise lost images.
