Gloria, 2008
The film is situated in a park in Rio de Janeiro, which is designed in the style of French garden architecture with
fountains, statues and benches. Around the park an urban environment is visible. Both the cars in the background
and the fountains compose the soundscape as well as the shouts of children playing in the park. The subtitled narration
imagines a possible film sequence that could be realised in the park depicting Oscar Niemeyer and Manuel de
Oliveira sitting together on one of the benches. It starts to snow.
