Essi Rafael is a Brazilian birdwatcher, diplomat, and filmmaker. He studied Cinema at the Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar), where he recorded the lives of a group of university students. These images are part of his first feature film project, "Four Seasons of Youth".
From enrollment to graduation, a wannabe movie director filmed his experience at one of the most important universities in Brazil. Portrait of a disenchanted generation follows the hopes and fears of students who faced an unprecedented educational crisis.
