The idea to create a Brazilian version of The Magdalena Project arose in 2004, when the event coordinator Marisa Naspolini participated at Roots in Transit, in Holstebro, Denmark. Since then, she’s been engaged in stimulating meetings of discussion and exchange with actresses, directors and researchers from Florianópolis about the questions rose up by The Magdalena Project.
With the accomplishment of Vértice Brasil 2008, this network has been definitely established in Brazil with the presence of co-founders Jill Greenhalgh and Julia Varley. This initiative aims to keep active and updated through the numerous partnerships created between Brazilian and foreign artists and all the connections created by The Magdalena Project and Vértice Brasil.
