Synopsis

A documentary that revisits the emergence of a diversified movement rooted in the city of Belo Horizonte in the late 1980s, focused on safeguarding the Nado Lake region. Through a rich collection of oral and visual archival material, the documentary showcases the strength of this grassroots political organization advocating for environmental preservation and the memory of a place championed as a common good. A struggle infused with a spirit of celebration, where music, capoeira, skateboarding, dance, and the arts engaged myriad social groups, fostering a sense of communal sharing and forging a notion of community.
