LuxFilmFest x MUDAM: A collaboration dedicated to the work of Ana Vaz

Calling all cinephiles and contemporary art lovers: LuxFilmFest and Mudam are teaming up around the work of Ana Vaz, the Brazilian artist and filmmaker.

The presents “A câmera é o corpo” (The Camera Is the Body), a major exhibition dedicated to Ana Vaz, running from 13 November 2026 to 2 May 2027.

The good news? The story doesn’t end at the museum door. The exhibition continues at LuxFilmFest 2027 with a screening of Hanabi, Ana Vaz’s latest film.

Hanabi is the fruit of ten years of filming in Japan, and a savage  adaptation of Yoko Hayasuke’s Journal of a Radioactive Brain, written in the wake of the 2011 tsunami and nuclear disaster. The film caught the eye of Locarno (where it earned a special mention) before travelling to the NYFF and the BFI London Film Festival. It blends experimental cinema with documentary.

Key dates to save:

  • Right now at Mudam: Step into the Ana Vaz exhibition (until 2 May 2027).
  • 4–14 March 2027 at LuxFilmFest: Catch Hanabi on the big screen (screening date to be announced soon).
