In Pedro Costa’s cinema, one can see the past, present, and possible future of movies. Drawing from the traditions of John Ford and Jean-Marie Straub and Danièle Huillet, Costa has created films that are at once hypnotic; pictorially and texturally stunning; incantatory; attuned to the lives, dreams, and tragedies of Ventura and the Cape Verdean immigrants who are his stars; politically and historically grounded; and made in a state of absolute independence. Costa will join us to discuss his towering new film Horse Money and the path that took him there.
