In a city of drawn characters, an indigenous boy witnesses a holographic appearance. It’s the arrival of an entity of unknown materiality. With a mysterious presence and its exotic allegories, it starts to enchant people, awakening their most insane senses. Magnética was made using clippings from several old films and later applied the rotoscope process, including playful elements and characters, trying to create a story that would be developed throughout the process. With a language that moves between the incomprehensible and disconnected Portuguese, the intention was to create a not very rational narrative, but with multiple sensory senses.
