Project attributes

The documentary UAKTI makes a visual and sound incursion through the emblematic trajectory of the Brazilian group UAKTI, from the musical formation of its idealizer Marco Antônio Guimarães to the recognition of the work of the collective in the national and international scenario. The group is recognized worldwide for its strong partnerships with musicians such as Philip Glass and Milton Nascimento, among others. From interviews, archive footage and recordings never released on album, the film seeks to capture and transmit the essence of the group that was constituted from the construction and use of unusual acoustic instruments, celebrating the alliance of the academic with the popular and living music within an integrative perspective of broader issues in life.
