Interviews with Augusto Boal: From 1971 to 2009
This exclusive collection of interview footage charts Augusto Boal’s entire career and influence around the world, giving unique insights into the development of his thought and work. Compiling extracts from interviews he gave in France, the Netherlands, the US, Spain and his native Brazil, this montage by Jeanne Dosse is a superb introduction to his politics and aesthetics.
In rare footage of a conversation with Paolo Freire in 1996 chaired by Doug Paterson, Boal demonstrates his philosophy of transformation of the image and empowerment of the spectator, and speaks about hope and optimism.
