Venue: “Since the 1980s, audiovisual production has been an essential tool of struggle and resistance for Brazilian Indigenous groups. Currently, about 90% of Brazilian Indigenous communities have their own filmmakers, who have established themselves as key figures in the symbolic production of knowledge, contributing to subvert and decolonize commonly accepted visual notions about what it means to be Indigenous.

This programme showcases four short and medium-length films that form an important part of this contemporary Latin American cinema tradition. This selection’s thematic focus is on women’s environmental movements to revert deforestation, and on the efforts of Indigenous communities to narrate their histories, from their own point of view.

The screening will be followed by a Q&A with curators Takumã Kuikuro and Christian Fischgold.”
