Eunice e Ruy

DOCUMENTÁRIO

Eunice Muñoz and Ruy de Carvalho together in a unique documentary that takes us on a journey to the origins of theater and simultaneously to the roots of two actors with almost a century of career and great work side by side.

Viagem ao Princípio

Starring Eunice Muñoz and Ruy de Carvalho, this is a singular documentary.

Filmed on historical stages such as the Teatro Nacional D. Maria II, the Trindade and the Teatro Romano de Mérida, or in the intimacy of the dressing rooms and homes of the actors themselves, “Viagem ao Princípio” presents Eunice and Ruy in a scene against themselves, literally and metaphorically.

There are individual testimonies about each of these giants, but the enticement we propose is one last adventure side by side, two sacred monsters together, once again on stage and in life. A denial of the academic biopic through the crossing of stories of the two old companions and friends in a final narrative, a last challenge, an adventure for two, a return to the beginning of everything.

Imagining Eunice and Ruy together on the giant deserted stages that survived from antiquity allows us to understand the immortal anthology images waiting for us. The letters they exchange with each other, staging reality, give us insight into their extraordinary journey.urso.
