Luciano Carneiro e Paulo Abrão
Paulo Abrão is a producer and filmmaker from Paraná. A graduate in Chemistry, he moved into the arts through the photographic archive of the portraitist Almiro da Silva, owner of the Foto Estrela studio in Sapopema, in the interior of Paraná — the same setting in which he has been making films that hover between documentary and fiction. With Índigo Braga he co-directed the short film "Animais Noturnos" (2024), screened at national and international festivals.
Luciano Carneiro is an editor and filmmaker based in Rio de Janeiro, a graduate in Film and Audiovisual from the Universidade Federal Fluminense. As an editor he has worked on the shorts "Inconfissões" (2018), by Ana Galizia; "O Cavalo de Pedro" (2023), by Daniel Nolasco; and "Canto das Areias" (2024), by Maíra Tristão, among others. He also edited the documentary series "Enredos da Liberdade" (2024). As a filmmaker, he co-directed with Paulo Abrão the shorts "Interior, Dia" (2025) and "Bolota" (in post-production).
