Roseane Yariana Yanomami

Documentary about Indigenous peoples' profound connection to nature and their struggle against deforestation, a grave threat to their way of life and the ecosystem they call home.

An eye-opening he said/she said perspective on timbó fishing, a traditional practice of the Indigenous Yanomami people that involves the entire community and a vine used to stun fish, seamlessly blends preservation documentary, origin myth, magic realism and the reality of mining and economic threats to Yanomami culture in this formally inventive reclamation.

A Yanomami woman watches a shaman prepare the Yãkoana, food for the spirits. Based on the narrative of a young indigenous woman, the Yãkoana that feeds the Xapiri and allows shamans to enter the world of spirits also proposes a meeting of perspectives and imaginations.
