ethnographic film series
free with museum entrance
On his journey through the rainforests and cities of Brazil, Mattijs van de Port looks out for nets, meshes and grids. Whether in the literal or metaphorical sense: these “knots and holes” are of universal significance, appearing everywhere and in all situations. To underscore his ideas, Van der Port does not hesitate to include his homosexuality as well as personal accounts. A successful example for the cinematic implementation of social science theory.
