Samparkour: Parkour in São Paulo

Samparkour is a short by Wiland Pinsdorf that reveals the city of São Paulo (Brazil) under the unique view of Parkour. Where people see obstacles, Zico Corrêa visualize new possibilities. Parkour (sometimes also abbreviated to PK) or l'art du déplacement (the art of movement) is both a discipline with the aim of moving from one point to another as smoothly, efficiently and quickly as possible using principally the abilities of the human body, but is also built on a philosophical premise, perhaps more similar to martial arts than to a sport such as gymnastics.

The clip was shot in HD with 35mm lens adapter and while not strictly digital it provides a great view of the city and thus we thought well worthy of a post.
