Synopsis:

Edgar Pêra has made more than a hundred films since the mid-1980s, turning him into a chronicler of modern Portugal. In short and full-length films, music videos, comics, performances and an occasional TV series, Pêra and his inseparable camera went looking for signals, not necessarily of youth culture, but of a Portugal that had to rediscover itself after the dictatorship. With returning themes such as the relationship between spectator and performance and the tension between formal structures and whimsical nature, Delirium in Las Vedras is a contagious and fairly anarchic registration of the equally anarchic carnival in Las Vedras, a suburb of Lisbon. With a pack of actors who have appeared more often in front of Pêra's camera, for instance in CineSapiens (2013), he dives into the crowds for interviews. But the egos of the interviewers are too large and the spectators can hardly get a word in edgeways.
