Brazil/France/Germany | 2019 | Maya Da-Rin

A middle-aged indigenous widower working as a security guard in a Brazilian industrial city—where he lives with his daughter, a nurse—yearns for his Amazonian rainforest roots. His sense of dislocation is amplified by casual racism, reports of a wild animal on the loose, and a mysterious malady that leaves him enervated. This multiple award-winning “fictional” debut by an acclaimed documentary filmmaker has been called “essential cinema” by Cinema Scope magazine. Cleveland premiere. Subtitles. 98 min.
