Manas
Deep in the Amazon, 13-year-old Tielle grows up with dreams inspired by her older sister’s escape. As she grows older, the illusions to which she clings begin to crumble, revealing a world of deep-seated exploitation and abuse. Determined to protect her younger sister and change their future, she dares to challenge the powers that oppress the women in her community. A gripping story of resilience and resistance. The director shows admirable sensitivity and respect in his choice of what to show and what not to show.
