Nao dar em nada

Video 4K, Stereo, 9min30, Bahia, Brasil, 2022

Wide sea. The camera pans down to a lonely beach. The waves come and go, drawing their lines in the sand. A person with a wooden stick emerges and tries to give these movements an outline, to delimit them. A drawing emerges for a moment, only to be blurred again shortly afterwards. The Portuguese title „não dar em nada“ means as much as „to come to nothing“ or „it‘s not going anywhere“.
