In a near-future Brazil, the government gives priority to the country’s younger generations, while older people are put away in colonies so they will not hinder their offspring’s productivity. The 77-year-old Tereza refuses to submit and decides to escape, embarking on a transformative journey through the Amazon to fulfil one last wish before her freedom is taken away. This film is an inspiring and visually lush odyssey, as well as a striking critique of ageism and authoritarianism.
