O Fim do Sem Fim [something like The End of the Endless] is a feature documentary film that has as scenery the upcoming disappearance of some jobs and professions in Brazil. It composes an immersive picture about the creative geniality and the resistance against new cultural forms and technological trends.
By discussing the finality and the expected end of some process evolved in some kind of handwork nowadays, the substitutions that contemporary life promotes are discussed with great originality by the professionals workers. Experts in not so useful activities, they play in the film their own roles in real life. The project was based in a large research, which was conducted however as an attempt to follow the main subject with freedom and with no obligations concerning documentary rigid methodologies or even historical or anthropological approaches. Along the work, several workers give valuable statements and tell important things about their lives. In most of the cases life and work means the same thing. Some people are in the same job for almost 80 years. Others just don't know how to do anything else - or never have thought about it. It has a tragic side, as their job does not fit in modern way of living anymore their own existences may fade away too. But their confidence and obstination override pessimistic view about the future. Creative interpretation of the reality helps them to preserve not only their existences but also their dignity. Using metaphors and playing between fiction and reality, the experts are portrayed in different ways of approaching. Some of them are introduced with no further interference while some are presented in a more elaborated form. Reinforcing an antropofagic view of such a culture, the film does not stick with any homogeneous resource or uniform aesthetic The work tends to strength the concept that the talent and originality of Brazilian people is to reinvent themselves from being oppressed by any form of cultural imposition. O Fim do Sem Fim was shot in Brazil at locations
in the regions of Minas Gerais, Espírito Santo, Rio de Janeiro,
São Paulo, Bahia, Alagoas, Sergipe, Pernambuco, Paraíba and
Ceará.
