We are approaching the end of the 3rd Chica Pelega Film Festival – quilombola edition, and many beautiful things happened. There were many experiences, emotions and exchanges lived in these days, both in the in-person sessions and in the contacts we made online.
This last week, one film in particular will enter the catalogue: the documentary Vãnh gõ tõ Laklãnõ from the curatorial axis Visions of the ancestral world, which brings together films in an attempt to understand significant elements of the existence and resistance of the original peoples, especially those who live in Santa Catarina and who lead contemporary struggles, such as the Laklãnõ against the Time Frame (Marco Temporal).
Log in and watch this and 27 more films for free until July 31!
