For more than a year we have experienced a situation of great suffering for humanity. The disease that has imposed itself on human lives brings with it an opportune moment to slow down and rethink relationships with other living beings that cohabit the planet. How long have we been inflicting suffering on non-humans, destroying their abodes and annihilating their survival? We, the Manoki and Myky indigenous peoples , present the exhibition “Times of Healing”, visions of other possible worlds, which already exist among us, worlds in which we respect the coexistence with the Mju'u, the various “Mothers of the Earth” , who never it was one.

In the first session, “Times of Healing” , we present six films made in 2021 and one made in 2020, which talk about the current times of the disease and its respective cures, either through ancestral knowledge or scientific knowledge. In the second session, “Tempos de Aprendizado” , we show the oldest documentaries of the Coletivo Ijã Mytyli de Cinema Manoki and Myky , whether when young people took their first steps in recording with the cameras, or in moments when we always continue to learn from our peers. Older.

We dedicate these works especially to the public from Brasnorten , who live in the territory inhabited by our ancestors, in which they were always well received by us, the first hosts of this land . We wish that our coexistence with the kewa (non-indigenous people) is always respectful and peaceful . For this, it is time to know more, through our documentaries, our ways of existence, so that our rights and dignity are recognized.
