Part anthropological documentary and part musical the film speaks about the realities of Brazil with its enormous social and economic tensions.

The Ghost of Modernity (Lixiviado)

Miguel Angel Ríos

Film & Video (Film & Video)

Superb production values and special effects that in the hands of Miguel Angel Rios do not get in the way or distracts from the content and deep essay of this work. The shadow of Modernity represented via a clear cube floats over and through a barren landscape in Latin America. Juxtaposing the corrupt politics of the land, with the artist’s struggles and questioning of the effects and burden of influence of Modernity.
