CGiii Comment

Revisiting locations from Paulo Rocha’s 1963 Cinema Novo movement classic The Green Years, Rodrigues and collaborator Joa¯o Rui Guerra da Mata discover a Lisbon mostly emptied of its inhabitants (primarily due to the pandemic), and where the city’s infrastructure and setting – its buildings and surrounding landscape – take on their own character. Featuring acclaimed actress Isabel Ruth in delicious song sequences, an evocative soundtrack by Rodrigues’ usual collaborator, the cellist Séverine Ballon, and a playful camera, Where Is This Street? unfurls as an immersive experiment in cinematic language. Whether it is viewed on its own, or in conjunction with The Green Years, it will likely inspire a variety of meanings and interpretations. Above all, it is a glorious homage to a city and the art of cinema.
