Relatório de trabalho de conclusão de curso do documentário : “quando Maceió dorme"

Abstract

In this documentary, different characters share their routine at dawn. These people represent so many others who continue their activities while the vast majority of the city is asleep. People who need to stay awake are portrayed first, as is the case of Rosália, who works during the night. Secondly, people who choose to stay awake to have fun at night, like Ana. This nocturnal movement has boosted economy in regions such as the traditional neighborhood of Jaraguá, which now keeps not only nightclubs, but also bars open until dawn. The short documentary ends with the drag queen Skarllet Fuck’sia, symbolizing people who like the night, but also are forced to choose it, because it is only at dawn that they can be who they really are. The production was designed for the Journalism Course Conclusion at the Federal University of Alagoas.
