Deep in Brazilian northeastern arid country, the camera follows an enigmatic character as it hides, walks, and crawls through the local vegetation. While she relates events of her life, a male voice is heard exclaiming in the background: “Há terra! Há terra!” [“There is land! There is land!”] Shot in 16 mm, the footage evokes the eagerness of Brazilian avant-garde cinema to explore the country and produce a powerful and generous image of Brazil.
