Lilavati

page 1
There was once a day when the great mathematician Bhāskara
consulted
the horoscope of his daughter, Lilavati.
The stars said that if the marriage of Lilavati didn't happen on the
most auspicious of all hours, the mathematician's daughter
would
be, soon, a widow.

Bhāskara ordered then that the exactitude of the hour was to
be assured
by the most precise water-clock of all India

page 2
However, while waiting for the right hour, the bride Lilavati
bent over
the waters of the clock, trying to guess how much
waiting time was
still ahead.
It was then that something happened. Without anyone
noticing
the hour went by, and with it, the groom's longevity was gone.


At night, someone said that a pearl is something perfect that an
oyster does with what hurts her inside.

KUNTA


Kunta é a primeira obra de ficção produzida pela Blablabla Media, realizada por Ângelo Torres { European Film Promotion's 2004 Shooting Star } e com Direcção de Fotografia de Carlos Isaac, tendo a escrita do guião cabido a ambos.
Em 2007 , tive a honra de poder desenhar o story-board e alguns esboços conceptuais, durante a minha estadia na base da Blablabla, em Madrid. Já este ano, trabalhei no grafismo do genérico e dos objectos de promoção, em colaboração com a designer Vera Sacchetti.
Kunta terá a sua ante-estreia no dia 20 de Maio, às 21:30, na Sala Dr. Félix Ribeiro.
