The September Mutual Films Session features films by artists who have been collaborators and friends. Berliner filmmaker and curator Ute Aurand (born in 1957), one of the greatest contemporary exponents of experimental cinema in Europe, will come to Brazil for the first time to present two programs of her films (all in their Brazilian premieres) in their original format in 16 mm She will also present a program of short films by the Scottish filmmaker and poet Margaret Tait (1918-1999) – whose work process Aurand knew in depth in the 1990s –, in new high-resolution digital copies that have been shown at festivals and cinematheques around the world in recent years in honor of the centenary of Tait.
