A collage of archival footage and music about Paulo Werneck, one of Oscar Niemeyer's collaborators.

This short documentary was made for an exhibition in Rio of the work of Paulo Werneck, one of Oscar Niemeyer’s collaborators. Werneck was the first to introduce mosaics into Brazilian Modernist architecture. A piece of art itself the film is a montage of sounds and music that skillfully invokes the context of the artist’s work in Rio and Belo Horizonte during the 50s and the 60s, as well as Brasilia at the time of its construction in 1960. An inventive collage of archival footage, music and Werneck’s modernist mosaics.
