TRANSAMAZONIA

In the organizer's words:

Feature film - F, D, CH, TW, BRA 2024 - 112' - OmeU

Director: Pia Marais

After surviving a plane crash in the Amazon rainforest as a child, Rebecca helps her father, a missionary. When illegal loggers clear the land of the indigenous people, the two have to take a stand. With the help of breathtakingly immersive nature shots, writer and director Pia Marais tells a sensitive drama that never simplifies the relationship between man and nature, between whites and indigenous people and also between father and daughter, but deals with it in all its complexity.

All about the power of images in film, pop culture, art and society. At FILM FESTIVAL COLOGNE from October 17-24, 2024 and always online.
