Ibirapema, dir. Olinda Yawar, Brazil 2022, 50 min., Tupinambá with English subtitles

The countries of the Global North are the biggest polluters on the planet with their CO2 emissions. Thus, they created the carbon credit system, which pretends to protect forests in the Global South, which are already protected by their first nations. It’s a typical farce of financial capitalism known as ‘hot air’. The enchanted beings of those forests, with their perforMAGIC ACTivations, came to reveal this great farce and invite everyone to do environmental justice with their own hands, united in a great cosmic spiral.

This film contains explicit female nudity content that may be disturbing to some viewers.
 
Ibirapema, dir. Olinda Yawar, Brazil 2022, 50 min., Tupinambá with English subtitles
 
A Tupinambá Indigenous woman traverses between the mythical and the everyday world, transmuting as she travels through space and time. Along the way, she engages in dialogue with the world of Western art, the urban landscape and the tamed forests that exist within it. Her experiences provide a unique perspective on the intersections between different cultures and their impact on the environment.

Aiku’è Zepé (I Still R-exist / Ainda R-existo), dir. Zahy Tentehar & Mariana Villas-Bôas, Brazil 2020, 13 min., Ze’eng Eté with English subtitles
 
A project born from the need to manifest the artist’s concerns as a physical body and an Indigenous woman struggling to survive the chaos left by ‘civilisation’. The narrative emerges from the earth, representing the birth of a genuine being in symbiosis with nature, its body inseparable from nature, and which must go through a process of searching for their identity.
