Filmmaker and video artist. Son of the writer Lygia Fagundes Telles and the lawyer Godofredo Telles Jr, he was the stepson of the historian and film critic Paulo Emílio Salles Gomes. Goffredo worked as a producer with José Mojica Marins, in films like the 1969 O ritual dos sádicos (O despertar da besta). Works he directed include: Narrarte (1990), on the life and work of Lygia Fagundes, co-directed by Paloma Rocha and awarded at the Gramado Film Festival; Abre a jaula (1982), a video-argument against censorship, co-directed by Edson Elito; and Fogo fátuo (1980), which retraces Mojica’s trajectory, from his early encounter with cinema to the creation of Coffin Joe.
