A Poeira e o Vento poster
NR

A documentary about daily life in a remote, hard-to-reach rural hamlet in the interior of Minas Gerais, near Ibitipoca State Park. Despite the region's growing tourism, the routine of the families who have lived there for years remains unchanged. They remain virtually isolated from the outside world, on the fringes of progress. Most of the inhabitants are farmers striving to sustain their livelihoods and preserve ancient habits and customs that are on the verge of disappearing.

Breath is a creative documentary about human existence and the mysteries of life and death, seen in the everyday life of a small village in the middle of nowhere, in the countryside of Brazil, where families have lived for years, almost completely isolated from contact with the outside world. Wind, dust, mountains, silence and time… Man and nature live together there in both harmony and conflict, amidst what is and what could be, in the vastness of a landscape grander than vision can grasp.
