The first mountains that the Amsterdam-based Colombian artist and filmmaker Ana Bravo Pérez saw in the Netherlands were black.

In 1911, in Olaias, now a neighbourhood in Lisbon, the Portuguese Republic established itself and imposed the secularisation of the State. Meanwhile, a woman, known by the name of A.

A film that chronicles the lives of Tatiane, who leaves São Paulo trying to rebuild her life; Odair, a young man exploring his sexuality after leaving his parental home; and Henry, a Haitian immigrant struggling to survive amid Brazil’s poverty. As chaos unfolds in Rondônia, their paths will cross.
