Aracati
62’ | HD | 16:9 | Color | 5.1 | RJ, CE | 2015
Directed by Aline Portugal and Julia De Simone
Synopsis
Jaguaribe Valley, Northeast Brazil. Departing from the seacoast, we follow the path of the Aracati wind, sweeping into the heartland. Along the course, we observe the relationship between man and landscape, spatial transformations and the limits separating nature from artifice.
