Dir. Juliana Antunes. 2017, 71 mins. Brazil. In Portuguese with English subtitles. Friends Leidiane and Andreia live on the outskirts of Vila Mariquinha—a peripheral neighborhood of the interior Brazilian city of Belo Horizonte. Leid waits with her children for her husband to return from prison. Andreia wants to move. Meanwhile, the friends try to steer clear of an impending drug war between traffickers in the region. Winner of the Audience Prize at the 2017 FIDMarseille Festival, Baronesafollows these two women as their conversations penetrate the facts of life: family drugs, sex, death. With its predominantly female crew and nonprofessional cast, led by debut director Juliana Antunes, Baronesa introduces a powerful new voice in Brazilian cinema.

The eMphatia Jazz Duo with Mafalda Minnozzi, Paul Ricci, Rogerio Boccato
February 7 @ 5:30 pm
Birdland
Singer Mafalda Minnozzi and guitarist Paul Ricci have broken musical ground in Brazil and Italy in a long running collaboration resulting in Mafalda's notable solo career. Over time the freedom of their musical empathy overshadowed the usual larger band format resulting in a duo with its own unique language derived from both their Jazz and European upbringings and their extensive touring. Collectively they have recorded or performed with Milton Nascimento, Leny Andrade, Astrud Gilberto, Harold Vick, Sonny Fortune, Manolo Badrena, Guinga, Bebel Gilberto, Toquinho, Hugo Fattoruso, Bobby Sanabria, Dom Um Romao, André Mehmari, Roy Haynes, Harry Belafonte, Mike Clark and so many others.

Exhibition "Towards Light and Color", by Cecília André
February 9 - March 3
Opening: Feb 9 @ 6:00–9:00 pm
The Plaxall Galler
Participants will produce a small 8 x 8” size wire structure onto which they can stick pieces of the cocoa bean bags and colored vinyl pieces. Each participant will produce a light-catching hanging object which I will photograph and include in the show. (Will be returned to participants at the end of the show.)
This process will facilitate the understanding of the light qualities the show unfolds. We will discuss color theory and the qualities of transparent versus colored light. This exercise last one hour and a half and can happen once a week for the duration of the show. All ages are welcome, however children will need accompanying adults to do some of the work for them to be able to complete the project. Limit of ten participants per workshop.
