The Memory of Butterflies Filme

Surgindo das sombras do boom da borracha, as histórias esquecidas de Omarino e Aredomi são recuperadas numa viagem sensorial que entrelaça a narrativa pessoal da cineasta com arquivos amazónicos do início do século XX. O filme é um ritual cinematográfico que explora os limites entre pesquisa e especulação, ao mesmo tempo que reflete sobre poder, memória, reparações e o profundo diálogo entre os vivos e os mortos.
