Film Talk with Harold Grenouilleau an Vincent Rimbaux, Director and DOP of VAI CAVALO

Moderation: Eva Weinmann


VAI CAVALO, BR, FR 2022, Harold Grenouilleau, Vincent Rimbaux


The idyllic greenery of their surroundings is deceptive: Dirlinho
and his cousin’s childhood is marked by deprivation and violence.
They try to escape by working as jockeys. While the punters –
mostly older men – bet on them, they gamble with their lives for
a better future by riding doped horses. Always on the
protagonists’ eye level, the film captures their balancing act
between hope and hopelessness. Sara Gómez Schüller
