A Terra De Frente (2021)

Intermingling artistic performances ranging from an iceberg in the Arctic Glacial Ocean to a ceremonial dance with indigenous Tuyucas in the middle of the Brazilian Amazon, the film records interviews with indigenous leaders, scientists and researchers who help us to understand the gravity and urgency of the global climate situation. Using the instigating power of his art, Thiago Cóstackz installed temporary artworks and spoke with names ranging from Pajé Bire Huni Kuin of the Kaxinawa ethnic group to the activist and explorer Céline Cousteau, passing by scientists such as Ingibjörg Svala Jónsdóttir, Paulo Artaxo and Olafur Ingolfsson. Through science, accurate data and his own poetry, Thiago Cóstackz takes us on this journey in which he faced "The Earth Head-On".
