2021
a short film by Bella Riza and InΓͺs Neto dos Santos
ππ¦π’π―π΄, ππͺπ―π΄π¦π₯ ππΈπͺπ€π¦ follows tales, histories, memories and recipes tied up in a bean. How many stories can a recipe tell? And who do these stories belong to?
Through the personal and historical symbolism of a bean β and, consequently, the process of growing, harvesting and cooking this seed β the film will move between the collaboratorsβ own memories (in all their factual/fabricated dimensions), expanding on to speak of how we carry multiple places within us, the value of tacit knowledge and the possibilities for a reciprocal language of care.
Production LOOP Barcelona. Co-financed with funds from the Creative Europe Program and the project A-PLACE. Linking places through networked artistic practices.
