Plantar nas Estrelas

Along with other Brazilian filmmakers of the time, such as Murilo Salles and Ruy Guerra, Geraldo Sarno traveled to post-independence Mozambique to document a historical process that, during Brazil’s military dictatorship, both inspired and fascinated him. In this recently restored short film, Sarno uses his direct and generous documentary approach to capture the aspirations and experiences of a people who, after much suffering, rediscover hope through struggle.
