Regina Silveira's Mil e um dias (1001 Days) (2007) in the Film Sector of Art Basel Miami Beach 2013.
Mil e um dias (1001 Days) is a combination of live action and animation with a soundtrack that alternates rotating images of night and day. The images slowly expand and contract, in a movement resembling that of a camera shutter, as the landscapes mix and regenerate, recalling the tradition of Brazilian concrete poetry. The continuous succession of interloping days and nights alludes to the infinity of time, evolving horizons, and interchangeable hemispheres.
