Eden's Ark

Marcelo Félix / Brazil, Italy, Portugal / 2011 / International Premiere / 80 min.


synopsis

FilmBOTANY establishes an analogy between botany and film, comparing the preservation and description of plants to the preservation of human memory on film. The film’s poetic structure and meditation on spiritual and material heritage results in a unique multi-layered mixture of essay, documentary, and experiment.
