NOWHERE It's a feature film, a documentary or a "film-diary" (influenced by some Jonas Mekas' films), composed by the film-autobiographies of 8 women and their points of view on the city they were living: São Paulo, Algiers, Paris, Berlin, Cologne, London. The film is a poetic testimony about the relationship of these women with the city; which sometimes appears in a violent way, or in the attempt to create art, or in the dazzle of discovering the new, or in the feeling of being a foreigner.
