Catalog Information

The film surveys the political identity, land rights, and racial and socioeconomic discrimination of Africa communities in the modern world. We observe the daily activities that allow the quilombolas to survive in relative isolation, including food preparation, construction, hunting and fishing. Includes rare footage of Macumba and Paje ceremonies, Tambor de Crioula and Boi Bumba drum and dance celebrations, and Festivals of the Mast.
