O Carro Falante/The Talking Car
BoCA 2023

Agnieszka Polska

Mini-Docs Theatre

Documentary about “The Talking Car”, by Agnieszka Polska, which had its premiere at the BoCA Biennial 2023, at Culturgest, in Lisbon.

In the first play by the award-winning Polish artist, there is only one hope: “a ‘happy ending’ that is not written by humans”. A melancholy yet eerily beautiful end of the world, starring Albano Jerónimo, Iris Cayatte, Vera Mantero, Bartosz Bielenia, Aaron Ronelle and a host of technological gadgets.

BoCA, together with Waves Of Youth, has produced 8 mini-documentaries on projects commissioned or inaugurated during the 4th edition of the biennial in 2023. These are creations that mark the debut of established artists in new artistic territories, or celebrate unprecedented encounters between artists from different fields, such as dance and music, visual arts and participation, or music from different genres in dialog.
