17 self-taught directors come together to give new meaning to their work in the form of 20 new episodes that are part of the feature film "Noisy Silencers", an extrasensory video experience that takes us on a journey through the history of cinema, from the 1880s to the present in a tangle of deliriums of the seventh art.
In 1992, a group of teenagers began recording horror films with VHS cameras in Palmitos, in the west of Santa Catarina, Brazil. Led by Santa Catarina director Petter Baiestorf, the production company came to be called Canibal Filmes. Far from large urban centers and in times of stagnation in Brazilian cinema, the group learned in practice how to make low-budget cinema. The films found their own way of financing and showing to the public. Through reports, photographs, documents and videos, the documentary covers Canibal's early years, retracing the group's efforts and challenges in making independent cinema in a region with no cinematic tradition.
