The Other Side of the Atlantic is a documentary that builts a bridge in the ocean that separates Brazil and Africa. The film tackles the cultural exchanges, the imaginary created through the mirroring, the prejudice and dreams built in both sides of the atlantic through the life stories of the students of african countries in transit through Brazil.

The film is a silent invitation to contemplation: on the winding paths of preserving memory, on what slips through our fingers in the present, and on our own place in the face of the departure of those we love, the disappearance of places, and the subtle marks we leave along the way.
