: “A brief history of fictions”. The video series are created from non-fictional stories. Their formal structure is developed through several phases using working methods from documentary and performance. The process culminates with the construction of a video documentary on stage, emphasizing the use of film strategies to represent factuality, therefore identity and history. Under this convention, the stories develop a narrative fiction, which is supported through different media, such as sound, video, performance and writing. The documentary form allows the exploration of subjectivity and self-reflexivity, evidencing character and identity construction. Documents such as sound interviews and video footage were the core materials to develop the video documentary for the performance.
