Exploring the personal notebooks of Edgar Pêra, we approach the creative process of the filmmaker and his artistic influences. In this universe, Fernando Pessoa is a pervasive figure, announced from the early records (whose activity began in 1977) and dominant in the diary production during the years of the project Não Sou Nada, between 2014 and 2022. However, what can be inferred about these contents is no more relevant than the exercise of envisioning the notebooks (whose classification fits into artist books) as a manifestation of a work (life) marked by insatiable and, perhaps, polymorphic curiosity.
