Eduardo Goldenstein

Maria is a 10-year-old girl who was born and raised in a circus, where her parents were tightrope walkers. One day, she ends up being forced to live in the city with her grandmother and finds it difficult to remember the past. From her bedroom window, a rope is the only connection between the real world and her imaginary world, a way that she finds to keep her memories so she can move on.

Five directors with five completely different cinematic styles go on an affectionate journey through each one of the five states bathed by the gigantic São Francisco River. Faith, passions, legends and the search for survival in the riverside communities of this river full of colors, which cuts through the dry hinterlands and flows into the exuberant sea of Northeastern Brazil.
