Film

A beiradeira e o grilador

The Woman from the River and the land Thief
La donna del fiume e il ladro di terra

Machado, upper reach of the Tapajos River, State of Parà, Brazil. 12 December 2006. Hundreds of Mangabal area residents come to the state capital to take part in a public assembly prior to the creation of the mining reserve (resex) Montana Mangabal. Resex is a sort of protection of an area and its inhabitants that attributes to the local population the rights to land use and sustainable exploitation of the natural resources of the forest and the river and constitutes protection against deforestation and illegal exploitation by the Madereiras companies. The public assembly held by the Istituto Brasiliero do Meio Ambiente e dos Recursos Naturais Renovàveis (IBAMA) and the Ministerio Pùblico Federal is an event the entire community was waiting for, a festive occasion for a population that views resex as a kind of life insurance. Maria “Dona Santa” Palhares, an elderly blind woman, representing the collective memory of the community, is the beiradeira of the film title. Dona Santa provided Maurìcio Torres, sociologist at the University of Sao Paolo, with the historical background for his study A beiradeira e o grilador, which ultimately led to the establishment of resex.

Claudia Apostolo is a journalist who works at the Piemonte regional studio of RAI and on the weekly nationally broadcasted program Ambiente Italia produced at the Turin studio. This is her first documentary film.
Daniela Marchetto is co-founder of Puntodoc and has made video documentaries of street and puppet theatre. For MAIS he created Flores, a documentary film festival, and is now organizing the third festival.

“This documentary depicts the preparation and the actual assembly for obtaining approval of the reserve; it captures the feelings, hopes and determination of the people, along with the history and daily routine of a population who, though living “in another world”, in microsettlements scattered along 50 km of the river, show their ability to band together and fight for a common goal.”
