Selected Film
Between the fire that roasts the cashew nut and sacred songs, Akaîutĩ tells the tale of the Mendonça Potiguara people. Guided by the resonant voices that tend to the earth, the film shows a living science – where every gesture is resistance; every melody, protection. Through the wisdom of the elders and the learning of youngsters, we discover a practice that goes beyond sustenance – an act of resistance unto itself.
