Director João Rosas joins us to talk about his work with a focus on his feature debut “The Luminous Life”. It's a beautiful exploration of youth that evolved in a very particular way from three of his earlier shorts. We’ll dive into those connections, examine the role of Lisbon in his movies and explore the current climate for filmmaking in Portugal.
We will also take a few moments to discuss his documentary “Death Of A City”. It is a very personal film that chronicles the demolition of a building and the men doing the work. It is a layered analysis of the exploitation of individuals and a city.
Perhaps most interestingly, we will get into the particular role that film festivals play as gatekeepers at the same time as we discuss João’s work as a festival jury member and the challenges that come with that responsibility.
During our chat João mentioned the American reviews of “The Luminous Life” you can find them here: Variety Hollywood Reporter
