O Canto (2023)

In “O Canto”, we are taken over by the traditions and unique sounds of Arapiraca’s tobacco producers. The film presents Mestra Rosália Gomes as the guide through this immersion in the poetry of the everyday lives of women whose lives are intertwined with the culture of smoking. As we follow Rosália, we discover the ancestral roots and the powerful strength that resides in the corners that flourish in coexistence between women. This film explores ancestral strength, revealing a world of beauty and resilience that is passed down from generation to generation. “O Canto” is a celebration of the cultural richness and resilience of the distillers.
