IN THE BLUR BETWEEN DOCUMENTARY AND FICTION WE CONJURE THE SPELL!

Naywá returns to her hometown of Oeiras, in the interior of Piauí, and proposes to a group of amateur actors a reading and performance of a 1758 document that narrates a Witches' Sabbath in the city. Arrenego is a film that addresses the persistence of colonial, racial, and gender oppression in Brazil, connecting the past with the contradictions of the present.
