Yaõkwá: Image and Memory 2020

In 1995, a team of filmmakers and anthropologists recorded ceremonies and daily life with the Enawenê-Nawê of the state of Mato Grosso in central Brazil. Twenty-five years later, images of the Yaõkwá ritual, a seven-month festivity, emerge. Cataloged and edited by the Vídeo nas Aldeias collective with the participation of the Enawenê-Nawê community, the remarkable images return to the villages. The arrival of these precious images reintroduces the history of the traditional ceremony to a new generation.
