About the films:
No More History Without Us, dir Priscilla Brasil, Brazil/Portugal, 76 min
Submerged in the sea of greenwashing that drowns them daily, two Amazonian filmmakers have decided to denounce, in this film manifesto, the entrails of the historical process of inventing and exploiting the forest as an inexhaustible Garden of Eden. Between Munich and BelĂ©m, they reveal how racism and prejudice, in Brazil and throughout the world, are still organised around the idea of a âsavage demographic emptinessâ, unable to speak for itself.
Utopia, dir Rayane Penha, Brazil, 15 min
A daughter searches for stories lived by her gold miner father who died in the garimpo.
