Perder

 Losing 
2025




Tomorrow, Clarice is going camping with her grandmother. She’s prepared everything: the tent, the sleeping bag, her plush dog, the lantern (to find lost things in the dark), and the book her grandmother will read to her, among other stories. Tales of jungle animals who shed their skin to grow, or who howl when they lose those they love. Amidst it all, she writes a (very unscientific) treatise on what it means to lose – because it wasn’t won – and to lose – because it hasn’t (yet) been found.

Impossível

 Impossible 
2018




It all began when everything was in the same place. We don't know how it appeared, but we do know that the Universe started in a very small space. It seems impossible, but it's true: when it all began, all the big things were very very little.
Impossible tells the history of the Universe from the Big Bang to the birth of plants, animals and humans.
