‘New York, Just Another City’ – directed by André Lopes and Joana Brandão
‘New York, Just Another City’ follows a young leader and audiovisual director, Patrícia Ferreira, who has been widely recognised for the documentaries she has been making with her people, the Guarani Mbya, an indigenous people who live across South America. Patricia was called to debate her work at one of the world’s largest ethnographic film festivals, the Margaret Mead Film Festival, which was held at the American Museum of Natural History in New York. The film follows Patricia during her time in New York where she comes across some exhibitions, debates and attitudes that make her think about the Western world, contrasting it with the Guarani’s modes of existence.
