The documentary explores and connects the architecture of Brasilia, with Oscar Nyemier’s iconic buildings, and mysticism. Could the buildings, with its interesting shapes, capture cosmic energies? Is that why, in Brasilia, surface UFO studies, masonic and spiritualist cults? This American production shows the Brazilian capital as a city that was born from utopian desires, but not as triumph or failure - as a place that favors alternative cosmologies. The film calls itself a “sci-fi documentary” and provides a complex portray of life, poetry and myths.

Presented at Visions du Réel film festival.
