AHRC-FAPESP MoU - Towards an Intermedial History of Brazilian Cinema: Exploring Intermediality as a Historiographic Method
Lead Research Organisation:
University of Reading
Department Name: Film Theatre and Television
Abstract
This project will focus on cinema's nature as a mixture of arts and media in order to produce the first, groundbreaking intermedial history of Brazilian cinema. It will also explore the uses of intermediality as a historiographic method applicable to cinema as a whole. To that end, it will bring together scholars from the University of Reading (UoR) and the Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCAR), as well as 3 PDRAs, combining expertise in cinematic intermediality (Nagib, Araújo, Butler, Paiva, Reck Miranda, PDRA 2), Brazilian cinema (Nagib, Araújo, Cesarino Costa, Paiva, Reck Miranda, PDRAs 1 & 3), film history (Araújo, Cesarino Costa, PDRA 2), film theory (Nagib, Butler, Purse, Gibbs), film and music (Reck Miranda, Paiva, PDRA 3), film and theatre (Gibbs, PDRA 3), film and visual arts (Butler, PDRA 1) and film and popular culture (Purse, PDRAs 1 & 3).
Intermediality has never been applied to cinema as a historiographic method, which is being proposed in this project as an entirely original and promising avenue. Broadly speaking, 'intermediality' refers to the interbreeding of artistic and technical medial forms. In this project, it will be used both to indicate film's mixed nature and to give pride of place to those film phenomena in which hybridity is particularly notable. The focus will be Brazilian cinema, which from its early days has combined extra-filmic artistic and cultural forms, resulting in an original aesthetic blend. Artists coming from theatre, opera, dance, music, circus, radio, television and the plastic arts left a distinctive mark on film production in the country, apparent in practices such as: the 1920s movie prologues; the chanchada musical comedies of the 1940s-60s; the 1950s productions from the studios Maristela, Multifilmes and Vera Cruz; the Tropicália cinematic outputs, spanning the 1960s-80s; the 1990s árido movie production; and the contemporary wave of music films. The investigators will conduct intensive archival and filmographic research on these periods, as well as interviews with relevant artists and experts, so as to substantiate the premise that these hybrid phenomena break the boundaries between local and imported traditions, high and popular cultures, passive and active spectatorship, 'classical' and 'modern' narrative forms, constituting a democratic space par excellence for artistic and social expression.
Brazilian cinema is strategically and timely placed to demonstrate the advantages of the intermedial method. Brazil's current economic ascendance evidences the shortcomings of traditional approaches, such as the sociological model, hinging on questions of imperialism and colonial occupation leading to what Salles Gomes once termed 'a trajectory in underdevelopment' a propos of the history of Brazilian cinema. Film studies as a whole are in need of a productive alternative to evolutionist views which posit 'modernity' as an aesthetic or political pinnacle in film history. Rather than privileging some forms over others, intermediality will allow us to place a variety of styles and genres on an equal footing, resulting in a kaleidoscope that accurately reflects a national cinema's cultural richness and political complexity.
The project will benefit academics and researchers willing to find new ways of understanding film history away from evolutionary and hierarchical schemes. Two edited books will ensue from the conferences 'Towards an Intermedial History of Brazilian Cinema' and 'The Moving Form of Film: Exploring Intermediality as a Historiographic Method'. Other outputs will include 12 book chapters and more than 30 journal articles. The project will also benefit the general public through impact events coordinated by the PDRAs and accompanied by comprehensive catalogues: a Tropicália Film Season at Tate Modern; re-stagings of the Movie Prologues at the Cinemateca Brasileira and the Reading Film Theatre; and a Brazilian Music Film Season at the Reading Film Theatre.

Planned Impact
This project is being proposed under the aegis of the RCUK-FAPESP MoU, whose aim is to strengthen research links between the UK and Brazil and to foster UK's global performance and competitiveness. Accordingly it will endeavour to raise UK's academic and social profile in Brazil and vice versa by launching a pioneering line of enquiry into Brazilian cinema's intermedial relations. As a historiographic method applicable to cinema on a global scale, the research will demonstrate UK's academic forefront position in tackling this new theoretical avenue, whilst catering for the recent surge in interest in Brazil within Britain. Main beneficiaries will be:
1. Archives, museums and their users. The investigators will be conducting research at a number of archives in São Paulo, Rio, Recife and London (see Case for Support). For example, Araújo has identified and will be revisiting materials available for research on the movie prologues of the 1920s at the National Archive, the Cinemateca Brasileira, the São Paulo Public Archive, the Cinédia Archive and the Brazilian Society of Theatre Authors. At these and other archives, the project team will be working towards preserving and presenting data on Brazilian cinema which, for the first time, will include its rich and complex intermedial and intercultural relations. By the end of the project (March 2018) archive users will be able to access this information in an organised form, which will improve and enrich their perception of Brazilian cinema. Tate will particularly benefit from the Tropicália Film Season (March 2017), curated by PDRA 2 Ross in collaboration with Tate's assistant curator Clark, as it will complement and reveal the interdisciplinary nature of works by Hélio Oiticica and other Tropicália artists in their collection.
2. Audiences of museums and not-for-profit organisations. Under the coordination of PDRA 1, in June 2017 the Movie Prologues will be re-staged at the Cinemateca Brasileira, in São Paulo, whose audiences will become aware of this intermedial phenomenon and its value as cultural heritage of popular extraction. Two impact events will take place at the not-for-profit Reading Film Theatre: the re-staging of the Movie Prologues (September 2018) and the Brazilian Contemporary Music Film Season (June 2018), the latter coordinated by PDRA 3, showcasing examples of this burgeoning production, including major biopics on musicians such as Cazuza and Two Sons of Francisco, accompanied by Q&As with filmmakers such as Walter Carvalho and Sandra Werneck. This will be a unique opportunity for Reading audiences to become acquainted with the Movie Prologue phenomenon and the contemporary Brazilian cinema. Through the Tropicália Film Season, in March 2017, Tate Modern audiences will become aware of the relations between Tropicália artworks and films. Performances and debates by invited artists and speakers, such as José Celso Martinez Correia and Paloma Rocha, will reinforce the links between academics, the general public and the industry.
3. Students from UoR and UFSCAR. The re-enactment of the Movie Prologues at the Cinemateca Brasileira will be performed by the theatre company Cia. do Terror led by a UFSCAR PG student. In September 2018, the same shows translated into English will be re-staged at the Reading Film Theatre by actors and a director recruited among UoR FTT UG and PG film/theatre students. By participating in these impact events, students from UFSCAR and UoR will be training in their future careers as theatre actors and directors.
4. International audiences and readerships. Audiences around the world will be kept constantly abreast of the research results through the project's bilingual website and social networks, enhancing their perception of Brazilian cinema and the uses of intermediality. The two edited books will be submitted for publication straight onto paperback and e-book so as to reach general audiences, as well as the academic readership.

| Title | Passages - an 18min version of the feature-length documentary film |
| Description | The film Passages attempts to address the relationship between cinema and the real by looking at a selection of films in which intermedial devices, that is, the utilisation within film of artforms and media such as painting, theatre, music, literature, photography, radio and television, appear to function as a 'passage' to political and social reality. It combines original footage shot in São Paulo, Recife and Cambridge, film clips and sections of interviews with 15 key Brazilian filmmakers, technicians and curators. These are all strongly connected to what became known as the Retomada do Cinema Brasileiro, or the Brazilian Film Revival, starting in the mid-1990s, which brought back to the agenda the question of national identity and Brazil's lingering social issues. Several members of this generation went on to become internationally acclaimed filmmakers, such as Fernando Meirelles (City of God, The Constant Gardner, Blindness), Beto Brant (The Trespasser, Delicate Crime), Tata Amaral (Starry Sky, Antônia), Marcelo Gomes (I Travel Because I Have to, I Come Back Because I Love You), Paulo Caldas and Lírio Ferreira (Perfumed Ball). The flourishing and diversification of independent filmmaking from that period onward favoured not only a new approach to reality, but an emboldened use of the film medium that acknowledged and exposed its inextricable connections with other art and medial forms. |
| Type Of Art | Film/Video/Animation |
| Year Produced | 2018 |
| Impact | This 18-min version of Passages had a tremendous impact at the conferences it was shown (Intermediality Now, in Cluj Napoca, Romania; and Symbiotic Cinema, in Växjö, Sweden). It was also highly appreciation at another exhibition at the University of Reading. It served for a test for the reception of the forthcoming feature-length version of the film. |

| Title | Passages: Travelling in and out of film through Brazilian geography |
| Description | Positioning itself between the essay and the documentary forms, the feature-length film Passages showcases a selection of Brazilian films in which intermedial devices, that is, the utilisation within film of artforms and media such as literature, painting, theatre, music, photography, radio and television, appear to function as a 'passage' to political and social reality. It interweaves these filmic examples with interviews with 15 exponents of the Brazilian film industry, including 11 filmmakers, one editor, one music composer, one producer and one curator, all of whom are strongly connected with what became known as the Retomada do Cinema Brasileiro, or the Brazilian Film Revival, starting in the mid-1990s, which brought back to the agenda the question of national identity and Brazil's lingering social issues. The flourishing and diversification of independent filmmaking from the 1990s onwards favoured not only a new approach to reality, but also an emboldened use of the film medium that acknowledged and exposed its inextricable connections with other art and medial forms. Though the 1990s Film Revival involved production centres all over Brazil, Passages focuses on film practitioners from São Paulo and Pernambuco, who established a creative collaboration across the geographic, economic and cultural borders of their respective regions. Interviewees (in alphabetical order) Tata Amaral - Film director, producer, screenwriter Hélder Aragão (DJ Dolores) - Composer, film director Cláudio Assis - Film director, producer Beto Brant - Film director, producer, screenwriter Paulo Caldas - Film director, producer, screenwriter Vânia Debs - Film editor, academic Ana Farache - Curator, photographer Lírio Ferreira - Film director, producer, screenwriter Marcelo Gomes - Film director, screenwriter Hilton Lacerda - Film director, screenwriter Fernando Meirelles - Film director, producer, screenwriter Kleber Mendonça Filho - Film director, film critic, screenwriter Renata Pinheiro- Film director, art director, screenwriter Adelina Pontual - Film director, producer, screenwriter João Vieira Júnior - Film producer |
| Type Of Art | Film/Video/Animation |
| Year Produced | 2019 |
| Impact | . Immediately upon completion, Passages was invited for three screenings at Brazil's most important film festival, the 43rd São Paulo International Film Festival, in October 2019. Post-produced to full professional level, with 5.1 mixing and DCP format for theatrical distribution, in two versions (one in Portuguese and another in English), the film was shown in two of the most important venues in São Paulo, in three prime-time full-house screenings, and elicited great amount of extremely positive press and enthusiastic feedback from the audiences collected in questionnaires and on video. The first screening was followed by Q&A with myself and Samuel Paiva, and the third screening by a debate with myself, Paiva and three of the film directors interviewed in Passages. The film was subsequently invited to the Janela International Film Festival in Recife, in November 2019, for two screenings, the second of them followed by Q&A with co-director Paiva. The film went on to be invited by the International Film Festival Rotterdam, one of the most prestigious film festivals in the world, for three screenings in late January 2020, as well as several other international festivals, and is receiving offers for distribution in Brazil, the US and Europe. The film is now being invited for screenings at festivals, arthouses and academic institutions all over the world, and has already produced impact among the exponents of Brazilian cinema interviewed in it and among audiences who attended the screenings. For example, Fernando Meirelles states, in an impact video Samuel and I have produced, that he had never been aware of the intermedial character of his films before watching our film. Others, such as Marcelo Gomes, Lírio Ferreira, DJ Dolores and Adelina Pontual, stress the importance of the film to their own creative process, and how their future work will reflect what they have learned from Passages. These and other film practitioners and curators, such as Tata Amaral, Paulo Caldas, Renata Pinheiro, Vânia Debs, João Vieira Jr. and Ana Farache, highlight how Passages blurs the boundaries between academia and society and how enriching it was for them to see their works scrutinised in such depth by academics. They all recommended the film for screenings in public venues, television and schools, and are looking forward to sequels to it. As for the general public, 81% of the c. 100 questionnaires collected in São Paulo gave the film the maximum score (between 8 and 10). Comments were enthusiastic: 'I learnt a lot!', 'It was a pleasure to watch!', 'CONGRATULATIONS', 'editing is extremely sophisticated', 'the result was fluid and artistic', 'I was moved by the strength of our cinema! This is a mandatory film for every Brazilian!', etc. Viewers clearly discovered something new about Brazilian cinema, the essayistic documentary, and intermediality as a political tool as demonstrated by the films studied in Passages. |

| Title | Performance of Silent Film Prologues at the Minghella Studios |
| Description | The UK premiere of movie prologues, "The Stylised Cowboy" and "Doing it the Pirandello way", originally performed in Cinelândia, the area of marquee cinemas in Rio de Janeiro, in 1926. The prologues were written to to accompany Buster Keaton's Go West (US, 1925) and Beggar on Horseback (US, James Cruze, 1925), of which only a fragment survives. The UK premiere of the prologues complements the other performance earlier in 2018 at Museu da Imagem e do Som in São Paulo (MIS-SP), also as part of the IntermIdia project, on this occasion by the extraordinary Companhia Antropofágica. |
| Type Of Art | Performance (Music, Dance, Drama, etc) |
| Year Produced | 2018 |
| Impact | The public performances of the prologues were delivered by a group of 17 students from the Department of Film, Theatre & Television, who worked on them within a final year module, Ensemble Practice. The performances and the screenings took place on 6th and 10th December 2018 in the Minghella Studios (University of Reading) as part of the Reading Film Theatre programme, and were previewed in the popular blog Silent London, devoted to the silent film scene in the UK. A total of 29 audience members completed surveys. Out of them, more than a half had never heard about film prologues before, and the average enjoyment rate was 8.75. The audience emphasised the connection between the prologues and the films ('the plays add different meanings to the film that make it a better experience!') and the interactive dimension of the event ('bringing actors to play in front of the screen and creating some sort of interaction between them, the public and the screen is fantastic, because you get more involved than before'). The involved students highlighted their learning in the creation process ('It was really nice to be able to combine film aesthetics with theatre aesthetics, and also bring what we have within the theatre experience and combine it with the characters from the films'; 'I love this idea of intermediality. Not excluding or putting up walls between different art forms. The experience was challenging, in the best possible sense. It has challenged my theoretical and my practical understanding. It made me work in ways I haven't before'). This project was led by members of the IntermIdia Project team including Co-I John Gibbs, PDRA Albert Elduque, PI Luciana Corrêa de Araújo, PDRA Margarida Adamatti, together with Lecturer in Performance Practices and Industries in the University of Reading, Lucy Tyler. The film of the performances will be presented and discussed by Tyler, Gibbs and Elduque at the Screen Conference, Glasgow, 28-30 June 2019. |

| Title | Playing at the Margins |
| Description | Audiovisual essay created by John Gibbs and Suzana Reck Miranda. Playing at the Margins looks at the work of two musicians - José do Patrocínio Oliveira and Nestor Amaral - both of whom had successful careers in Brazil and who also appeared in a number of Hollywood films of the 1940s, though with little acknowledgement and often in supporting roles. The essay begins by quoting Ian Garwood's video essay 'How Little We Know: An Essay Film about Hoagy Carmichael', which looks at another musician's marginal position in relation to the action, before tracing José and Nestor's appearance in a range of movies - popular with audiences of the day and scholars of the present - unearthing a hidden history, if one in plain sight and hearing. In doing so, it aims to demonstrate that the impact of the Good Neighbor Policy was both to highlight and to hide the skills and national identity of Latin American musicians who performed in Hollywood films, and to explore ways in which an intermedial approach may help analyse this effect. |

| Description | On the various research fronts opened up by this research, findings have taken place as follows: 1) The history of Brazilian Cinema can indeed be reconstructed through an intermedial historiography, as has been demonstrated by the projects numerous outputs, such as publications, conferences, workshops and impact events; 2) Intermedial encounters in Brazilian cinema relate to each other across history and geography and can be held responsible for specific features of a national cinema. This has become patent through the various conference papers and publications by the research team, and the repercussion these are having; 3) There is a strong intercultural and transnational dialogue in intermedial practices, in cinema; the tools and methods to evaluate and measure the contribution of each medium have been tested through all the project's activities; 4) The ways in which intermedial film phenomena in Brazilian cinema compare with those in other national cinema and how intermediality can help us to understand the history of cinema as a whole has been studied at two major conferences, 'Towards an Intermedial History of Brazilian Cinema', held at UFSCar in Brazil, and 'The Moving Form of Film: Exploring Intermediality as a Historiographic Method', held at Reading, UK, and consolidated through the publication of articles, dossiers, catalogues and two forthcoming books, as well as a multiplicity of other events. |
| Exploitation Route | 1) Publications. As well as journal articles, book chapters and journal special issues and dossiers, the project will yield two edited and one single-authored books, ensuing from the two international conferences. 2) Film 'Passages', a feature-length essay-film currently being edited, which once ready will be sent out to international festivals and be offered for commercial distribution. 3) Video-essays. Several members of the team (Gibbs, Cesarino Costa, Reck Miranda, Solomon and Elduque) are engaged in this practice, which combine theory and practice in videographic outputs; several of these have already been published in open-access online outlets. 4) Filmmakers and practitioners. We are working in close contact with those, in particular through the film 'Passages', through which their modus operandi is being inflected. 5) Students and early-career researchers. PhD students and postdoctoral fellows are working closely to produce the projects outputs and gaining practical and intellectual experience in the process. 6) Collections and archives. We are working in close contact with archives in Brazil and the UK as described in our application, facilitating their uses by other researchers. 6) Website and social networks. Our presence on this platforms is growing, with regular uploading of videos of our activities, garnering increasing numbers of viewers and users. |

| Description | 1. Summary of the impact In the early 1990s, the Brazilian film production industry had effectively shut down. Just a few years later it had recovered to become the burgeoning industry it is today. Lucia Nagib's Intermedial History of Brazilian Cinema (Intermldia Project) rediscovers and retells the story of the many political struggles and artistic conquests of this national industry. Using a pioneering, inclusive and democratic 'intermedial' approach - the combination of multiple arts and media with film - Nagib's project has influenced the programming of international cultural institutions and individual creative practices. Rediscovering the past and present of Brazilian cinema has prompted leading practitioners to engage with intermediality as a window to a country's social reality, inspiring new understanding of how cinema relates to other art forms and helping bridge the divide between the film industry and academia. 2. Underpinning research The underpinning research was carried out as part of an AHRC/FAPESP-funded project 'Towards an Intermedial History of Brazilian Cinema' (IntermIdia, 1 October 2015 - 31 July 2019). The project brought together 12 academics from the UK (University of Reading) and Brazil (Federal University of São Carlos) with complementary interdisciplinary profiles. The aim was to produce a new intermedial history of Brazilian cinema, exploring the relationship between cinema and other arts and media, including theatre, music, literature, visual arts, radio and television. Building on Nagib's previous research (output 1) and drawing for the first time on intermediality as a historiographic method, the project has identified and analysed the rich, but often neglected contribution made by these other art and medial forms to some of the most creative moments in Brazil's film history. Significantly, it has demonstrated that the intermedial method can offer a more inclusive way of engaging with the history of a national cinema. Two key intermedial phenomena are particularly relevant here: the "Tropicália" cinematic outputs of the 1960s-80s; and the Brazilian film revival from the 1990s onwards, which saw the birth of the "árido movie/manguebeat" movement. Nagib's research into the Tropicália movement culminated in a film season at Tate Modern, London, in November 2017, curated by Stefan Solomon (post-doctoral research assistant on the IntermIdia Project), involving celebrated artists such as Antônio Pitanga, Camila Pitanga and Ana Vaz. A substantial book edited by Solomon (output 2) accompanied the event at the Tate Modern, and a dossier of papers on Tropicalism in Brazilian cinema, originally presented at the 2016 Screen Studies conference, was published in the leading peer-reviewed journal Screen (output 3). The Tate event included an exhibition of Hélio Oiticica's immersive art experiments, Tropicália, Penetrables PN 2 & PN 3, from the Tate's collection, to coincide with the weekend of film screenings. The research established connections between the original movement of the 1960s and '70s and more recent work that resonated powerfully with artists, filmmakers and programmers alike. Another major IntermIdia output was the feature-length documentary film Passages, directed by Nagib and Samuel Paiva (output 4). The film, and the essays which inspired it (outputs 5 and 6) showcase a selection of Brazilian films in which intermedial devices; including music, literature, theatre, painting and radio, function as a "passage" to political and social reality. These films are interwoven with 15 interviews featuring internationally acclaimed practitioners from the Brazilian film industry, including Fernando Meirelles, Kleber Mendonça Filho, Lírio Ferreira, Tata Amaral and Marcelo Gomes, whose careers developed during the 1990s Brazilian Film Revival. Passages focuses on two specific states in Brazil: São Paulo (in the South-East) and Pernambuco (in the North-East), which are approximately 2,000km apart, but which bridged their geographic and economic gulf by means of a fruitful cinematic and artistic collaboration. Some of the works explored in Passages reflect on the military dictatorship of the 1960s and '70s. Parallels with the present political situation in the country are registered strongly in the film and elicited enthusiastic responses from the audiences, as they found themselves inspired politically and aesthetically. 3. References to the research The research meets the threshold for 2* originality, significance and rigour. It resulted from a competitive, peer-reviewed funding application; it was published in peer-reviewed books and journals. It is a recognised point of reference for Brazilian film history and develops new thinking in relation to how the intermedial method can offer a more inclusive way of engaging with the history of a nation's cinematic history. 1.

Details of the impact The Intermldia Project has told the story of the political struggles and artistic conquests of the Brazilian film industry by drawing on key moments of intermedial practice in the country's film history, including the "Tropicália" movement of the 1960s-70s and the "árido movie/manguebeat" movement of the 1990s. Thinking about how these creative peaks resonate today is particularly relevant in the face of threats to artistic freedom posed by Brazil's current government. A. Raising the national and international public profile of Brazilian cinema The IntermIdia Project has raised international demand for Brazilian film and culture, placing it within a wider political context. Audiences, both national and international, were encouraged to reflect on the importance of cinema's dialogue with other arts and media, and how a nation's film history develops in tandem with political events. This took spectacular form following the Tate's "Tropicália" season, where a 498-strong audience demonstrated increased awareness and engagement with the ways Brazilian cinematic history has influenced contemporary art and culture (E1, E2). Feedback was wide-ranging and enthusiastic, but a more visceral response happened at the event itself, where renowned cineaste Noilton Nunes made a passionate speech about Brazil's political situation and its film industry (E3). Passages (output 3) was awarded the prize of Best Documentary in the International Competition at the 13th Los Angeles Brazilian Film Festival. It was also selected for screening at the São Paulo, Rotterdam, Gothenburg and Janela international film festivals, receiving great critical acclaim (E4) from audiences and curators. Audience members commented on the film's resonance with the country's current political situation (E5, E6). Passages also led to an increased appreciation of the significant artistic relationship between the two distinct regions of Pernambuco and São Paulo in film history and practice (E5, E6). B. Impact on international commercial programming and distribution The IntermIdia Project has revealed the influence of Tropicália on, and through, cinema; the movement was previously chiefly associated with music and the plastic arts. The "Tropicália season" as a curatorial intervention resulted in the Tate Modern re-opening Hélio Oiticica's artworks Tropicália, Penetrables PN 2 'Purity is a myth' and PN 3 'Imagetical', which gave rise to the movement. This was the first time the works had been exhibited to the public since their acquisition by the Tate in 2007. As a result of the Tropicália season, Solomon was invited to curate a section at the 23rd International Film Festival of Kerala (India) and join the panel 'Curating Zeitgeist 1968' in São Paulo, with funding from the European Union National Institutes for Culture (EUNIC) and the British Council. The work has also influenced the very screening methods used to show cinematic material. For example, the Tropicália season at the Tate influenced subsequent curation of Glauber Rocha's landmark film, The Age of the Earth (1967): at the Filmoteca Española (Madrid) the film was, for the very first time, screened using a random order of reels determined by the projectionist at each screening. This approach - originally recommended by Rocha himself - followed the example set by the Tate show (E7, E8). The impact of Passages can also be seen in the commercial response: major international distribution companies, including O2 Filmes (Brazil), Aspect Ratio (US/Canada), Filmocracy (US) and Antidote (Russia/Europe) all bid to purchase the rights to disseminate it through arthouse venues, educational institutions and online platforms (E9). Discussions regarding this are still ongoing. C. Impact on Brazilian film professionals The production of Passages was innovative in breaking down barriers between academia and the filmmaking industry, at an international level. Interviews with filmmakers and professionals highlight how Passages deepened engagement between them. They emphasise how valuable it was to see their works scrutinised in depth by academics and articulated in a widely accessible form (E10). Several high-profile Brazilian artists and curators involved with Passages were challenged to reflect on their own practice and use of intermediality in their work. Fernando Meirelles observed: "Most of my films come from literature, but I had never thought about why I make films from books and how I adapt them" (E10). Other filmmakers stressed the importance of Passages to their own creative process, and how their future work will reflect it. Filmmakers Paulo Caldas, Renata Pinheiro and Beto Brant, editor Vânia Debs, producer João Vieira Jr. and curator Ana Farache all highlighted how Passages is ground-breaking in bringing together academia, the film producing community and society (E10). Tata Amaral commented: "Publications are the traditional way of conveying research, but a film is more communicative. I think this is a great initiative that should be followed" (E10). The Intermldia Project has produced a new historiography of Brazilian cinema which has impacted on public and commercial programming worldwide and enabled those involved in the Brazilian film industry to reflect on their own creative practice and engagement with intermedial methods. It has brought together academia, the film producing community and the general public in a way that has not been done before and provided a narrative of the Brazilian film industry's struggle for survival in the 1990s which has clear resonance with the political situation in the country today. |

| Title | Intermediality as a film historiographic method |
| Description | Intermediality as a theoretical approach has been on the film studies agenda for many years. However this research is for the first time testing and implementing it as a historiographic method applicable to national cinemas (the main case study being Brazilian cinema) as well as to cinemas a whole. Our project is thoroughly reconstructing the ways in which film history in Brazil is told, under an intermedial perspective, which is more democratic and non-hierarchical than usual classical-modern or evolutionary methods. In our publications and engagement activities so far, this method has been received with enthusiasm, and this is why so many members of our research team are being asked to give talks about it and their papers are being accepted by prestigious conferences around the world. |

| Results and Impact | 'Tropicália and Beyond: Dialogues in Brazilian Film History' is a major output of the IntermIdia project, and one for which I have been working collaboratively with staff from the Tate Modern for two years. The film series included seven separate sessions over four days (9-12 November 2017), combining canonical films from the 1960s and 1970s (several of which were screened in their original 35mm prints, an incredibly rare event), with contemporary works by a new generation of Brazilian filmmakers - five feature films and 19 short films in total. Each session was preceded by an introduction by myself, and was concluded with a discussion with one of the relevant directors. Each session was very well-attended, with many international guests involved, and positive responses registered via a large number of audience feedback forms. This event was accompanied by a book-length catalogue of the same name, published by the Berlin press Archive Books. As a result of the event's success, I was invited to curate a package of Brazilian films at the International Film Festival of Kerala (IFFK) in December 2017, and I am now in advanced discussions with both the European Institutes of National Cultures (EUNIC) in São Paulo, as well as Arsenal-Kino in Berlin, to continue 'Tropicália and Beyond' in 2018 and 2019. |

On January 2019, The Brazilian Tropical Violins came to the United Kingdom for the first time and scheduled concerts in Reading and in three venues in London: the Priory Church of St Bartholomew the Great, St Pancras Church, and the Kingsdale Foundation School. Their concert at the University of Reading was organised by the IntermIdia Project together with the Department of Film, Theatre and Television and the support of the University of Reading Arts Committee. The event in Reading was free and attended by around 100 people. The ensemble performed for an hour a selection of Brazilian music (including Zequinha de Abreu's Tico-Tico no Fubá and Ary Barroso's Aquarela do Brasil) and European themes, such as Vivaldi's Summer and The Beatles' Yellow Submarine. They also played together with 17 students from Sophie Roseveare Suzuki Violin School, a local centre which uses the same teaching method. |

| Results and Impact | The course Brazilian Music and Film was a companion to the Contemporary Brazilian Music Film Season and took place at the Reading Film Theatre from January 17th to March 21st at 6pm, preceding each screening. The course focused on the boom in music films that has taken place in Brazil since the so-called 'Brazilian Cinema Revival' of the 1990s, and it combined an introduction to the relevant artist and/or musical genre with a close analysis of key films and songs, followed by general discussion. The practical assessment of the course drew on the documentary 'Songs', by Eduardo Coutinho, and allowed participants to experiment with the relationships between music and image by working on a practical film project related to their favourite songs.

However, during the global pandemic, online conferences and webinars became more prevalent, and thus, this second workshop combined both online and in-person attendees to achieve global outreach. This workshop titled 'Intermedia/Interarts 2: Exchanging Chinese Cultures' was a hybrid event held online via Zoom and in-person at the University of Reading in Minghella Studios on 3 May 2021 from 10:30 to 19:00. Convened by Dr Mark Player and Hsin Hsieh and supervised by Professor Lúcia Nagib from the Department of Film, Theatre and Television, University of Reading, the workshop was funded by the British Council, under the aegis of the UK-China Humanities Alliance. |

| Results and Impact | This paper endeavoured to define a 'politics' that drives film beyond the specificities of the medium and into the realm of the other arts and the reality of life itself with a view to achieving social change. Privileged examples were drawn from the works of Beto Brant (The Trespasser, Delicate Crime) and Cláudio Assis (Bog Beasts, Rat Fever) in which corporeal engagement on the part of crew and cast is indissolubly entwined with painting, poetry and music as works of art in progress envisaged to produce as well as reproduce reality. The paper formed part of the first IntermIdia Workshop, bringing together all investigators from Brazil and the UK and members of the advisory board, such as Julian Ross, Deborah Shaw and Ágnes Pethö. The ensuing discussion was very useful for the progress of Nagib's research. |
