Gurcius Gewdner
Directing
Born July 30, 1982 in Brasília, Distrito Federal, Brazil
Gurcius Gewdner, born in 1982, screenwriter, editor and director, stood out early in the Brazilian underground with eschatological-dadaist anti-music performances with his group Os Legais, from the mid-90s onwards. Self-taught, but with an academic background in History, his interest in performance art and experimental music gave rise to the desire to make films, which were born parallel to his musical projects. A multi-faceted filmography: influenced by Christoph Shilingensief, Vera Shitlova, John Waters and the Kuchar brothers, he has several short and medium-length fiction films, including Texas Carlos Massacre (2021), Lieder Die Soldaten Morgen (2019), Bom Dia Carlos (2015, awarded at the Festival des Cinémas Différents de Paris, shown at Fifigrot, Sydney Underground Film Festival, Housecore Horror Festival, among others), Erivaldo: o Astronauta Místico (2013), Freddy Breck Ballet (2010) and Nosferatum (2003, awarded at Cine Esquema Novo). And two feature films that are revered worldwide: Pazucus: Island of Vomit and Despair (2017, an eschatological monster adventure shown on open TV, on Fantaspoa, Film Panic Presents, New Holland Island International Debut Film Festival, Insólito Film Festival, among others) and Mamilos em Chamas (2008), which in 2024 was listed in the book "Cinema Degli Eccessi" by Andrea Guaia, as one of the 100 most shocking films in the history of cinema, alongside masterpieces of extreme cinema such as Saló, Pink Flamingos, Sweet Movie and Irreversible.
