Dry Ground Burning // Mato Seco em Chamas

In October, CinemaAttic presents LANDSCAPES OF RESISTANCE. A programme exploring landscapes and humans, and how our surroundings affect the way we live and inhabit this world. We were promised progress, and we want to investigate how the race for progress has affected communities across the globe. Is it possible to bring together rocket science, ethnographic cinema, and queer amazonian mythology in the same programme of films? There’s only one way to answer that…
