Retratos Fantasmas (Pictures of Ghosts)

The documentary, Brazil’s entry for the Oscars 2024, will be shown at the ICA, in the framework of the newly launched Off-Circuit programme, which aims to provide a platform to new films that have yet to receive a proper spotlight in the UK, promoting a connection between these profoundly rich works and audiences on the lookout for something new and different.
