Directed documentary short on an Indigenous Mebêngôkre (Kayapó) community in the Brazilian Amazon, capturing their fight for land, tradition, and ecological survival.

Shot on location using natural light and handheld camera work to reflect the community’s rhythm and landscape, documenting a sacred ceremony that occurs only once every fifty years — one many fear may be the last.
