The history of the Black Brazilian population can be revisited from many perspectives, one of them being that of a Black woman. In this documentary, Inaldete Pinheiro de Andrade, one of the founders of the Black Movement in Pernambuco, reveals through her memories a sense of belonging “to an Africa on the other side and an Africa on this side”. As an older sister, she expresses her ancestral affections.

Rio de Janeiro. How far from the South Zone the Baixada Fluminense is found? Is it far enough for a region not know the other one? What are the (in)visible barriers that prevent an approximation? "Nunca fui, mas me disseram..." is a fun documentary that approaches, in an smart manner, the South Zone residents' view about the Baixada Fluminense. Independent and experimental, the film brings up questions about media manipulation, prejudice, the segregation between regions of the same state and auto-protection; without the pretentions of answering or clarifying something, only to argue about the stigmas' origin.
