The Moving Garden
18 min
In a botanical reserve, two young guides lead tourist groups through a garden that seems to breathe on its own. Between formal explanations and fleeting glances, the plants become the protagonists of a sensual dance, where nature and desire intertwine. In a delicate, atmospheric setting, the film reflects on the line between scientific observation and sensory experience, evoking the latent eroticism of plant life. The Moving Garden is a visual and poetic journey where desire floats gently, like pollen in the air.
Inês Lima works with the analog medium as an experimental vehicle in her artistic practice, crossing personal themes with nature and ecology, traditions, memory, and superstitions. The Moving Garden premiered at the Quinzaine des cinéastes.
