A documentary on cultural identities, with an emphasis on music and African religions in Cuba and Pernambuco, Brazil, seen through the eyes of two artists: a Cuban actress and theater director, and a Brazilian “coquista” and holy mother of Pernambuco, each one visiting the country of the other. The film documents the Festival del Caribe, held annually in Santiago de Cuba, during its thirtieth edition honoring Pernambuco.

Photography and the written word become powerful tools for preserving fleeting moments and capturing the spirit of communities in Olhares Cruzados pela Terra. Through a sensitive, collective narrative, the documentary weaves together memories, knowledge, and territories to honor 40 years of Brazil's Landless Workers' Movement (MST) while imagining new paths for the future.
