“It’s gorgeous…an enchanting tale” (First Showing)

“energetic, thoughtful and introspective, making for a uniquely life-affirming coming of (old) age saga…a wonderfully picturesque movie” (Observer)

“a bold, near-future odyssey…A tender, defiant journey of resistance, rebellion, and self-discovery.” (TIFF)

*Please take note that doors open 30 minutes before showtimes. We encourage people to arrive early. We have a small box office, a small candy bar, and a single-screen cinema, meaning that when most of an audience shows up a few minutes before showtime, it causes a bottleneck. If possible, we appreciate you arriving a little bit early to pick out your seat and get your popcorn. Thanks for your help!

In the name of economic recovery, the Brazilian Government created a perennial system of compulsory vertical isolation for seniors over 80 to be confined in a colony. Teca is 77 and lives in the village of Muriti, in the Amazon, when she is surprised by the announcement of the age reduction, including her age group. Cornered, Teca makes an intriguing journey hidden from the officers amidst rivers, boats and the underworld to clandestinely try to fulfill her last dream, to take a plane ride.
