Book Launch: I Am Nothing – a Post-Pessoan Film by Edgar Pêra

On June 13th, the book “I Am Nothing – a Post-Pessoan Film by Edgar Pêra” will be launched at the Lisbon Book Fair. The title, published by Tinta da China, is co-authored by Teresa Lima, a doctoral student at CECS and a researcher at Passeio – Platform for Art and Urban Culture. Coordinated by Jerónimo Pizarro (professor, critic, and director of the Pessoa Collection at Tinta-da-China), the book focuses on Edgar Pêra’s latest film about the poet Fernando Pessoa. In this work, which discusses the film’s production processes in connection with the director’s career, Teresa Lima collaborates with an in-depth interview with the filmmaker. The publication stems from an ongoing doctoral project on biography, art, and communication, based on the case study of Edgar Pêra. [Link for information.]
