SOMEWHERE OVER THE CHEMTRAILS
Synopsis
The documentary explores the events in the past decade in Brazil known as “rolezinhos”, in which a large crowd of young black people, many of which from peripheral neighborhoods, occupied downtown shopping malls and exposed the structural racism crystallized in these symbolic borders. From the lives of three such characters, and mobilizing rich archival material, the film commits to an activist stance and evinces the echoes between different contexts and political and subjective resistances, addressing Brazil’s everyday abysmal social and racial inequality.
