Director Biography - Caique Souza

Troquei a área de desenvolvimento de software pelo audiovisual e pela fotografia, numa transição que se fortalece a cada ano. Como cineasta, roteirizei e dirigi os curtas Meus Demônios e Looping, selecionado no Festival do Minuto e no First-Time Filmmaker Online Sessions. Na fotografia, destaquei-me com o ensaio Ensaio sobre a Pandemia, premiado com Bronze no 3rd Meihodo International Youth Visual Media Festival (Japão) e listado entre os Top 400 Great Photographers of Brazil e as Top 50 Best Photos of São Paulo no 6th 35AWARDS. Hoje atuo como cineasta e fotógrafo independente, além de produtor audiovisual sênior na ESA da OAB SP, sempre buscando narrativas que unam impacto visual e relevância cultural.

I transitioned from a background in software development into the worlds of filmmaking and photography, a path that has grown stronger each year. As a filmmaker, I wrote and directed the short films Meus Demônios and Looping, the latter officially selected at the Festival do Minuto and the First-Time Filmmaker Online Sessions. In photography, I gained recognition with the project Essay on the Pandemic, awarded Bronze at the 3rd Meihodo International Youth Visual Media Festival (Japan) and ranked among the Top 400 Great Photographers of Brazil and the Top 50 Best Photos of São Paulo at the 6th 35AWARDS. Today, I work as an independent filmmaker and photographer, as well as a senior audiovisual producer at ESA – OAB SP, always pursuing narratives that combine strong visual impact with cultural relevance.

Director Statement

Ontem, Hoje e Sempre! nasceu do desejo de registrar memórias antes que se perdessem. É um filme sobre raízes, pertencimento e transformação, mas também sobre como o tempo molda quem somos. Ao revisitar histórias de minha própria família e comunidade, encontrei não apenas lembranças pessoais, mas ecos universais de luta, afeto e resistência.

Dirigir este documentário foi um processo de escuta e entrega: ouvir o passado, observar o presente e imaginar o futuro. Acredito que o cinema documental tem essa potência a de transformar vidas comuns em narrativas extraordinárias, capazes de tocar o espectador para além da tela. Este filme é, acima de tudo, um convite à memória e ao diálogo entre gerações.

Yesterday, Today and Always! was born from the urge to preserve memories before they faded. It is a film about roots, belonging, and transformation — but also about how time shapes who we are. By revisiting the stories of my own family and community, I discovered not only personal recollections but also universal echoes of struggle, affection, and resilience.

Directing this documentary was an act of listening and surrender: listening to the past, observing the present, and imagining the future. I believe documentary cinema holds this unique power — to turn ordinary lives into extraordinary narratives, capable of resonating with audiences far beyond the screen. Above all, this film is an invitation to memory and to dialogue between generations.
