António Aleixo

A journey through the Brazilian Amazon, guided by the eyes of Renato, a Carioca turned Amazorioca. A reflection on identity, the legacy of an ancestral territory, and the cost of progress. An ode to the forest and the fragility of what remains.

António Aleixo built his identity around the need for recognition. But when his body failed, he entered what he calls a "Silent Winter". A period in which everything that once seemed solid begins to collapse.

A film about a paradise through the eyes of those who live there. From the weight of Leve Leve to the sour of Doce Doce.

One year after our first journey to the Amazon, we return not only to a place, but to a way of living. Through physical challenges and unexpected discomfort, this film captures a quiet process of transformation. A story about moving through discomfort to uncover an inner strength. More than a journey, a confrontation. More than a retreat, a return.
