Peixes do Velho Chico

In a Brazilian fazenda along the winding waters of a mighty river, a young man returns to his roots and confronts a long-held family secret. The community gathers around the rhythms of the river, where tradition and modern pressures collide, forcing characters to choose between loyalty and personal truth. Amid lush landscapes and quiet moments, the film weaves themes of memory, belonging, and reconciliation as old wounds slowly give way to tentative understanding. A coming-of-age story told with intimate warmth, it captures the small, luminous details of everyday life and the transformative power of facing the past.
