Artwork by Abbas Kiarostami
In the hundredth anniversary of Cinema, the Festival organized a remarkable and exciting meeting – between Mexican photography director Gabriel Figueroa and Portuguese filmmaker Manoel de Oliveira, the movies’ eldest celebrities. The poster, created by Abbas Kiarostami, was also remarkable. When he was in Brazil in the 18th Mostra, he followed a homeless girl along Avenida Paulista. Then he wrote a short story initially published in the ‘Cahiers du Cinema’ and included it in his filming projects. His poster is a stylization of Avenida Paulista.
