IT FOLLOWS 
In a cascade of events that takes us to different moments in life. What do all spontaneous meetings really mean?  
Based on a non-linear narrative, “IT FOLLOWS” interconnects similarities of behaviors, expressions, and communication between beings.  Edivaldo intuitively juxtaposes images and movement gestures developed collectively with the dancers, encouraging them to reflect on the power of group gatherings for a common goal. 
We also question: how do individual memories expand in the process of socialization?
