O Carnaval de Rua é Festa do Povo

Based on the concept of crossroads, the short film "Encruza" addresses issues that go beyond black bodies. In an interconnected way, the narratives are constructed in the encounter of the characters. The elucidation of poignant conflicts are the ends of this crossroads that culminate in this great celebration that is the street carnival in Lapa carioca.

Erased from the official history of the Brazilian labor movement, Domingos Passos, a fierce anarchist militant, steps out of the shadows into eternity.

Hellena and Lucas are Dom's parents. She is a hair stylist and he works as a barman. When their son is about to turn two years old, they decide, despite having little money, to have a birthday party.
