Two friends respond to the challenges of the present by connecting through a playful provocation. Separated by America’s hemispheres, one in Brazil and the other in the U.S, they communicate strictly through video letters during a year. As a rule, each letter is formally and thematically inspired by a woman experimental filmmaker. As life unfolds, they express on film what they want to share with each other: the experience of being a recent immigrant, the expectations of political elections in both countries, their fears and hopes, all while observing the different women around them.

The whole life of man is but a point in time. HALF MAN, HALF GHOST is the latest exploration by Davi Pretto after his first feature-film CASTANHA. Pretto shows us an old man’s slow disappearing process, in a far and remote area in the south of Brazil. A man that represents an old style of men that inhabited this region, but no longer exists.
