His films and video installations have been screened at important festivals and artistic events/exhibitions including Venice, IDFA, Locarno, Toronto, Rotterdam, MoMAn-nNY, Oberhausen, Clermont Ferrand, the Guggenheim, MACBAn- Barcelona Museum of Contemporary Art, Panorama da Arte Brasileira at MAM - SP and the São Paulo Art Biennale.

Seven adolescents take on the mission of filming, for one week, their family's housemaids and hand over the footage to the director to make a film. The images that confront us uncover the complex relationship that exists between housemaids and their employers, a relationship that confuses intimacy and power in the workplace and provides us with an insight into the echoes of a colonial past that linger in contemporary Brazil.
