Tsõ'rehipãri - Sangradouro

About This Movie

Tsõ'rehipãri - Sangradouro is a hauntingly intimate documentary that dives into the life of the Xavante people, who sought refuge in the Salesian mission back in 1957. The film captures their current struggles amidst a backdrop of encroaching soy agriculture, a stark reminder of their lost land and resources. The pacing is contemplative, allowing the viewer to absorb the weight of their experiences, as the Xavante share their concerns and resilience. It doesn't shy away from the harsh realities they face, which gives it a raw, unfiltered atmosphere. The lack of a known director adds to its mysterious allure, as if the focus remains squarely on the stories of the people themselves. A unique glimpse into a culture at a crossroads, it’s both poignant and thought-provoking.
