Synopsis

The camera docks on land and follows Safira, along with her child, as they head toward the community. The hands, the work, and the small gestures of the people gradually lead us through rivers of birth, memory, life, and death. After the passing of her mother Angélica, the director searches for her in other landscapes, through cities flowing along the Paraguaçu River in Bahia and the Alegre River in Maranhão, in her first feature film. This winding journey crosses generations, time, and knowledge with the rhythm, enchantment, and generosity that Moreira had already demonstrated in her short films. (G.B.)
