From the Sundance Film Festival, a complex work of social realism of the new American cinema: Pahokee<\/em> is a powerful portrait of a small rural town in the Florida Everglades. A close-knit community fighting financial insecurity and a bleak future. The camera pays attention to detail, thanks also to a hyper realistic photography, capturing the daily life of the city with a wealth of nuanced detail. From beauty contests to school and sports events, Ivete Lucas and Patrick Bresnan represent gender and identity ideas through social and collective rituals. Pahokee is direct heir of the Wiseman documentary tradition.<\/span><\/p>\n Maria Cera<\/span><\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n Ivete Lucas is a director, producer, and editor based in Austin, Texas.
