Abstract

This documentary project is a partnership between CRIA, EGEAC and Santa Casa da Misericórdia de Lisboa. The CRIA team will accompany the different stages of the popular march of Santa Casa, from the design of the parade and the manufacturing material, to the rehearsals and public exhibitions of the activity. The documentary narrative will be concerned with getting closer to the personal experiences of the participants (all from different institutions of Santa Casa Misericórdia de Lisboa), following their daily lives and the moments of the rehearsals, collecting a performative transformation of the characters and their personal involvement in this process, which will culminate with the important parade of the Marches of Lisbon.
