The Kiss of the Honey Badger

Geology, animals and the human path flow into this subjective portrait of Portuguese landscapes. Between 2018 and 2023, the director came across different regions and places in this country, either alone or with a group of artists and eco-activists. The footage was shot on the fringes of these groups’ work and activities, reflecting and revealing themes such as nature conservation, ethnography, agriculture or actions against gentrification. The rhythm of Pedras Instáveis is determined by the Bolex camera, but it is slower and contemplative, aligning with the contemporary idea of slowing down.

In a kaleidoscopic sequence, images search freely for stories that shape lives — faith, patriotism, anarchism, tourism, returns and arrivals, sketches of daily life and nature. Like a photo book, the film creates new images and relationships between shots, reassembling a journey of impressions where the outlines of the world oscillate. Filmed in Poland, Germany, Portugal, Greece and Brasil. Shot in 16 mm, in seven chapters. [Punto de Vista]
