Synopsis:
Journey deep into the Amazon Rainforest and witness the profound transformation of the Kaxinawá people. Emerging from decades of oppression and cultural suppression endured during the era of rubber plantations, where they were stripped of their language and heritage, the Kaxinawá people persevered. Through more than two decades of hard work, prayers, and cultural resurgence led by Ninawá Pai da Mata, they reclaimed their ancestral way of life.
In this mesmerizing feature film, you will be transported to the enchanting cacophony of the forest, experiencing the simplicity and beauty of everyday life. Discover the secrets of forest medicines and witness the immense efforts undertaken by a tribe to reconnect with nature and rediscover their true selves.
This poignant return to their roots serves as an inspiring example for the world, particularly in the critical moment we find ourselves in. It exemplifies the possibility of reclaiming our ancestral wisdom and revolutionizing our daily lives to harmonize with the planet.
