Joao Pedro Rodrigues and Joao Rui Guerra da Mata are one of the most cosmopolitan duos in contemporary world cinema. Their films tell us stories of love and human desire, receiving a highly favourable reception among critics and at international festivals. Despite their high profile, Rodrigues and da Mata's work remains relatively understudied. ReFocus: The Films of Joao Pedro Rodrigues and Joao Rui Guerra da Mata, paves the way for the study of the directors' work, critically analysing the various cinematic perspectives of their short and full-length feature films. In the first collection solely dedicated to their work, this book addresses the historical, political, stylistic, industry, and cultural dimensions of Rodrigues and da Mata's films, providing critical recognition for their contribution to world cinema.
Dr José Duarte teaches cinema at the School of Arts and Humanities at the Universidade de Lisboa, and is a researcher at ULICES (University Lisbon Centre for English Studies). Filipa Rosário is a Research Fellow at the Centre for Comparative Studies, University of Lisbon (CEC-UL). She co-edited the book New Approaches to Cinematic Space (2019), and is the author of O Trabalho do Actor no Cinema de John Cassavetes (2017).
