One morning, a shirt and a pair of pants come out of a closet. They come together to form a person, who eats breakfast, chooses a hat and puts it on. In this universe, people are composed of nothing but clothes. One of elegant and luxurious clothes, another of adult clothes, a third of children’s clothes, another one undresses someone to put on his clothes. They all go out into the street without bodies, heads and feet. People gather in the square and seem to get excited about something. Some try to wear hats, even though they have no heads, others shoes, even though they have no feet. One day a girl, who has a body but no clothes, enters this strange world.

“Sweet Spot” is an experimental animated short film that uninhibitedly explores the dialog between the work and its authors, Jorge Ribeiro and Paulo Patrício, whose points of view and creative approaches, both in terms of cinematographic language and ways of being, are quite different. Through this duality, and starting from a shared but at the same time individual process, the directors seek to understand at what point the short film they are making together reaches its “sweet spot”. In other words, the ideal point at which the work is considered finished.
