Forced to marry a slave trader, young Beatriz faces physical and emotionaI unrest beyond her years in this lyrical and nuanced historicaI mood piece. Upon returning from a trading expedition, Antonio discovers that his wife has died in Iabor. Confined to a decadent but desolate property in the company of his aging mother-in-Iaw and numerous sIaves, he marries his wife's young niece, Beatriz. Separated from her famiIy and left aIone on the rugged farmhouse in the Brazilian mountains, Beatriz finds solace in the dispIaced and oppressed inhabitants around her. ExpIoring the fraught intersection of feminism, coloniaIism, and race that has persisted across centuries and continents, Vazante is the haunting and stunning soIo directorial debut from Brazilian filmmaker Daniela Thomas. |
