Audiovisual production and distribution were seriously compromised during the period of isolation resulting from the policies of social distancing because of Covid-19. With the movie theaters closed, several directors had to adapt and found in streaming the possibility of projecting their work. The screens that were already seen as a reality for the cinema, assumed a leading role, showing themselves as an alternative with free access and more democratic distribution. The following interview shows the importance of documentary in the Covid-19 period, which found in digital its permanence of representation of the world in which we live. The conversation with the filmmaker Cristiano Burlan brings up the challenges in promoting the films during the pandemic period and the possibilities that the filmmakers found so that their films could be seen and debated. During the interview, Burlan spoke about the trilogy of grief, femicide and social problems, themes that are very present in his films.
