A film essay about the beginning of Limite (1930) by Mário Peixoto, a classic of the Latin American vanguard. Conceived via scenes, the ‘making of’ of the film and comments by author’s, this film freely recreates Peixoto’s drive to experience the sensations and limits of an artistic adventure. Berlin Film Festival 2015.
