Swinguerra

In the sports court of a public school, dancers rehearse highly disciplined routines under the watchful eye of a choreographer. Tensions haunt personal desires as they are observed by a rival troupe.

Barbara Wagner

Direction & Screenplay

Bárbara Wagner (Brasília, 1980) and Benjamin de Burca (Munich, 1975) develop a collaborative practice with the ones they portray. Their films take the form of musicals that defy conventional notions of genre as the fictional and documentary dimensions become hybrid in order to establish a third language-territory. Among their recents shows are 67th, 68th and 69th Berlinale, 32nd São Paulo Biennial, 5th Skulptur Projekte Münster and 58th Biennale di Venezia.
