Jahi Amani

A hybrid feature film that investigates contemporaneity through the body and its countless possibilities of expression and meanings. The film puts the body and the idea of the body in evidence, through metalanguage, articulation and confrontation of documentary, fictional and performative languages. The film follows the trajectory of the main character who uses her own body to formulate universes and investigate the meanings that are drawn in it. In a kind of subjective diary written on her skin, she records sensations and reflections, building relationships with thinkers, performances and archival materials, which lead her to other bodies and other stories.

Marina, a pregnant woman, experiences life from metals of the industrial city where she grew up. With her sister, she discovers a past where the Black workers who built the capital were excluded. When she meets Maria, a lady who is said to haunt one of the capital's first buildings, something supernatural happens.
