Emanuel Dimas De Melo Pimenta

My Father and My Grandfather Emanuel Dimas De Melo Pimenta

Through diaries, notes, photographs, sometimes small annotated papers, old books and magazines, forgotten home films, old photographs, negatives and documents found in folders or cabinets, during a five-year work, architect, composer and photographer Emanuel Dimas de Melo Pimenta reconstitutes the life of two ancestors: his father and his grandfather. It is a surprising and fascinating story that reveals much of the spirit of an era and of two countries in a trip of more than a century.
