LAZARUS' RESURRECTION WON'T DO ANY GOOD, 30min., Brazil
Directed by Clodoaldo Lino
An experimental short film that adopts the narrative pattern of a dystopia. In an imprecise future, humanity faces many strange diseases that threaten to bring the entire species to extinction. To avoid this situation, the Queen and her scientists orchestrate an experiment that could completely change the course of events: the resurrection of a man whose body has not yet been attacked by lethal viruses. Soon they encounter Lazarus who meets all the requirements, but it seems that all attempts to defy the biological mechanism are useless. People have to face the inferno of their own existence, dreaming of illusory paradise spaces.
Director Statement
"Lazarus’ Resurrection Won’t Do Any Good" is a film that was realized entirely with private resources, without any type of public fomentation coming from public announcement or incentive law. About one-third of the budget was achieved through a crowdfunding campaign, while the remainder was obtained through private investment. In order for the film to be possible, it was fundamental to establish a partnership with the technical staff and the cast, to which I express my sincere thanks.
