Chuva é Cantoria na Aldeia dos Mortos
Opisy(1)
There are no spirits or snakes tonight and the forest around the village is quiet. Fifteen year old Ihjãc has nightmares since he has lost his father. He is an indigenous Krahô from the north of Brazil. Ihjãc walks into darkness, his sweaty body moves with fright. A distant chant comes through the palm trees. His father’s voice calls him to the waterfall: it´s time to organize the funerary feast so the spirit can depart to the dead´s village. The mourning must cease. Denying his duty and in order to escape a crucial process of becoming a shaman, Ihjãc runs away to the city. Far from his people and culture, he faces the reality of being an indigenous in contemporary Brazil. (Cannes Film Festival)

The Dead and the Others is narrated in harmony with the character of the place and life of its
inhabitants and features a complete cast of non-actors, real natives of the northern Brazilian Krahô
tribe. Therefore, it is quite unique as a well-acted and directed feature-length movie. But you have to
have an interest in understanding characters, who are dealing with completely different things than
Western society, and in learning about their values. And compare them with your own, for example.
A poetic, soothing film. Spiritual. [Cannes]
