Karioka
Directed by Takumã Kuikuro
Takumã Kuikuro leaves his village located in Alto-Xingu, Mato Grosso, with his wife, Kisuagu Regina Kuikuro, and sons Kelly Kaitsu, Ahuseti Larissa and Mayupi Bernardo Kuikuro to live in Rio de Janeiro. The film shows 2-year-old Bernardo Mayupi Kuikuro discovering the beach and other places in the big city. They do many things, everything is new and, while they live this experience, the part of the family that stays in the village is afraid because the news from Rio de Janeiro are not always good, which causes concern and restlessness. A portrait of the Brazilian contrasts between the imaginary of the tribe and the reality of a metropolis.
