Woman in Green and Yellow

"The Brazil she carries does not fit into the colors of the flag."

In a Brazil of colors and contradictions, Iara, a young descendant of indigenous peoples, lives in denial of her origins. Fear of prejudice and violence against indigenous peoples plunges her into a silent melancholy. While her sister Sofia tries to restore her pride in who she is, her encounter with Tainá, a young indigenous woman who carries the strength of her ancestors, awakens in Iara the beginnings of acceptance. Through pain, silence, and awakening, Iara learns that acknowledging her roots is also an act of resistance. A poetic portrait of identity, ancestry, and the strength of the women who sustain Brazil.

Northfork

The year is 1955, and a great flood is coming to Northfork, Montana. A new hydroelectric dam is about to be installed in the mountains above the town, ready to submerge the valley in the name of progress. It is the responsibility of a six-man Evacuation Committee to relocate the townsfolk to higher ground. Most have duly departed, but a few stubborn stragglers remain – among them a priest caring for a sickly orphan, a boy whose fevered visions are leading him to believe he is a member of a roaming band of lost angels desperately searching for a way home.
