Canibal Filmes

Experimental animation, the creators spending two weeks scratching the Super 8 film.

A love story, a love triangle that gets soiled with blood with the arrival of a fourth character: a serial killer who collects vaginas. Lesbian couple is chased by lover betrayed in the areas of Weird. Blood and sex in the tradition of the 80's Boca do Lixo films with eschatological scenes and total cinematographic metalanguage.

A girl is kidnapped by a drug dealer at the behest of a corrupt senator (Coffin Souza), who intends to hold a party in the presence of a demented priest and a doctor using the girl as fun.

At the end of the busy year of 1997, we ended up filming a documentary produced by Jorge Timm. Jorjão's restaurant was very close to the Uruguay River, on Ilha Redonda, and there was a river flood, which rose about eleven meters above the normal level - two meters less than the record high of 1983 - and displaced many people. Claudio Baiestorf, Carli and I went there to record the damage, interview homeless people and invent delusions. We arrived at the place and realized that Jorge had greatly exaggerated, via telephone, the size of the flood damage. There were not even homeless people. Thanks to warnings from the civil defense, all residents had taken precautions. We opened a whiskey and started filming anyway.

In this anthology of horror episodes, 13 bizarre stories are told by independent film directors of Southern Brazil. Between ghosts, serial killers and demons, they conduct their strange, very strange stories.

Super Chacrinha and Glauber Rocha, two millionaires from the earthly plane of Varathrum, manipulate the people around them, including Deus and the Devil, so that their artistic industrial conglomerates grow.

It was supposed to be a romantic afternoon on a “deserted” island in the Uruguay River, but a couple of wealthy ecologists had a bad luck because they ended up finding not love and peace, but hungry zombies wanting guts and brains under the command of a priestess. diabolical, and this couple will have to fight for their survival in that place. Parallel to this, a serial killer dressed as an old lady drags a "blonde" from the city to her isolated shed to serve as a victim in her sadistic tortures.

A Cor que Caiu do Espaço (2016) is freely based on the text "The Color Out of Space" by H.P. Lovecraft. Filmed as if it were a delirious nightmare, Color that Fell from Space is a short with independent production of Baiestorf and Silvia Prado that integrated the collective long "13 Stories Strangers". Experimentalism.

This short exists only for one reason: I wanted to test the possibilities of the iris of a defective VHS camcorder that I had and the fading of the colors that resulted from VHS to VHS copies (this film is not black and white, it is faded color ). As I had no story to film, I improvised as an actor (Braun kept holding the camera for me), I walked from side to side, subtitled the whole thing with a poem I had written on and… Why not show the results of these experiences for everyone who is interested in seeing you.

Zombies, beautiful dead girls, newly-dead and a wide variety of colorful and slimy undead invade the West of Santa Catarina, Brazil. Guts roll while "yerba mate" Cronenberg is consumed by the farmers. But the zombies aren't the biggest problem when all the humans are sadistic and selfish.

Jesus Christ returns to planet Earth and is beaten up by the Christian community, which takes great pleasure in showing him christian affection!

"Crise existencial" from Petter Baiestorf. Brazil, 1998

A desperate gore short created by reusing scenes from the feature "They Eat Your Flesh" that the director was filming at the time. The short was edited for a Spanish gore film festival and to help raise more money to finish the main film.

In 2002 Petter Baiestorf launched the fanzine "Manifesto Canibal" with notes on how to produce films independently without any resources. In 2004 the anarchist publisher Achiamé ordered an expansion of the fanzine to be published in book format and, thus, the book "Manifesto Canibal" by Petter Baiestorf, Cesar Souza and intervention by Carli Bortolanza appeared. In 2007, already out of print, Petter Baiestorf decided to film the book in the format of an experimental short and what follows here is the result of this iconoclastic experience that kills the gods of cinema.

Short inspired by the dramas of George Kuchar, it starred Elio Copini, Everson Schütz and Coffin Souza. Despite being an extremely homemade production and made with friends in a moment of supreme fun, it shows what director Petter Baiestorf thinks about religions and their fanatical followers.

It's a film about the world today, about the need for a revolution, an uprising of the masses against the exploiters, so that the financial system can be completely rethought. It's an anarchist vision of the chaos we need for this change to occur (because anarchism is not mess, it's mutual support and solidarity). Of course, in 4 minutes there's no way to theorize about something so complex, but given the inequalities of today we have to do something, even if it's a short 4-minute short that, perhaps, awakens the inner revolutionary of those who watch (or not ).
