Abstract
Afro-Sampas is part of a 5 year research project, coordinated by the film’s directors, called ‘Being/Becoming African in Brazil: African musics and heritages’. This project is funded by São Paulo Research Foundation, and is part of a larger academic project entitled ‘Local Musicking: new pathways for ethnomusicology’. The project’s objective is to analyse the creative African diaspora in Brazil. In this film, we promote musical encounters between African musicians with whom we have been working since 2016 and Brazilian musicians who live in São Paulo. They share sounds, memories and creativity, exploring both musical and social issues in their encounters.
