Semente da Música Brasileira
Self
It tells the story of the musicians who revitalized Lapa, from the end of the 90s, in meetings on the small stage of "Bar Semente". The documentary is a historical record of a stronghold of cultural effervescence that remained in the affective memory of Rio de Janeiro.

Queens of Jazz: The Joy and Pain of the Jazz Divas
Self
The documentary tracks the diva's difficult progress as she emerges from the tough, testosterone-fuelled world of the big bands of the 30s and 40s, to fill nightclubs and saloons across the US in the 50s and early 60s as a force in her own right. Looking at the lives and careers of six individual singers (Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Peggy Lee, Sarah Vaughan, Nina Simone and Annie Ross), the film not only talks to those who knew and worked with these queens of jazz, but also to contemporary singers who sit on the shoulders of these trailblazing talents without having to endure the pain and hardship it took for them to make their highly individual voices heard above the prejudice of mid-century America.
