In this visual essay, Ana Costa Ribeiro uses personal archives to delve into the adventurous, relatively short life of her grandfather Joaquim da Costa Ribeiro, a pioneer in experimental physics in Brazil in the middle of the last century. He was the discoverer of the thermodielectric effect: “something to do with lightning,” as it was explained in a child’s terms to his granddaughter.

Threatened with death, three people in Brazil, Colombia and Mexico resist violence using weapons such as information, awareness and affection. Three countries, many lives, united by oppression.

Although Fatima, Brandy, Ana and Cecilia have never met, their life stories seem connected. Despite their difference in age, origin and skin color, they are all Latin American women affected by violence. Set in Mexico, Honduras, Brazil and Argentina, this full-length documentary recounts their stories of vulnerability and strength. Despite all these contrasts, their stories align and rhyme with each other.
