A Canção do Asfalto (2017)

Directed by Pedro Giongo

Drama · 16m

The film tells the story of Chen, a Chinese immigrant who lives as an invisible person in the city center. Amid homesickness, difficulty communicating in Portuguese and tiredness from work, Chen can't fit in anywhere. At night, alone and when the streets are empty, the asphalt becomes meditation and there he can dream. It is a fiction created and set in real locations in collaboration with the characters themselves, all non-professional actors who play themselves, creating a portrait with documentary aspects, both of their lives and of the center of Curitiba.
