Mistério Negros | Pedro Lino | 12' | PRT
The “mistérios negros” (dark mysteries) are trachemical domes of dark irregular rock, which originated in the eruptions that occurred in the islands of the Azores. This film stages a voyage to the center of the earth, diving into the beginning of the world, in a way that eludes Carthesian logic. Through the landscapes of the Azores, this piece chases the forces of nature and reflects on their relationship with man. The Azores have about 26 active volcanoes. The last great manifestation of these phenomena was in the Capelinhos in 1957, and it is estimated that the next big eruption in the Atlantic will also happen somewhere in these islands.
