I Only Rest in the Storm - ESCENA25 Oslo Ibero Amerikanske Filmdager

In "O Riso e a Faca" ("I Only Rest in the Storm"), Pedro Pinho crafts a sweeping, meditative journey through the tangled terrain of power, desire, and belonging. The film follows Sergio (Sergio Coragem), an environmental engineer arriving in West Africa to quickly create an impact assessment for the impending construction of a road project.
As Sergio navigates corresponding pressures from various entities involved, he finds himself drawn into the clandestine world of several locals, including Diara (played by Cleo Diára, who won an acting award for her performance at Cannes) and Guillermhe (Jonathan Guilherme). The dynamics of their relationships, specifically between Sergio and each of Diara, are inevitably complex. Whether they like it or not, their identities have been shaped by a capitalist, post-colonial world.
Filmed over many months across Guiné Bissau and Mauritânia, "O Riso e a Faca" resonates with a poetic tension: between lushness and barrenness, between native culture and foreign gaze, between displacement and intimacy.
