Nove Águas

Brazil, 1930. Marcos and his family (descendants of slaves) left the Jequitinhonha Valley for the Mucuri Valley. Fleeing from the drought, hunger and violence in the countryside, the "quilombolas" sought a new territory to build their community. Decades later, when everything seems to be in peace, a huge construction company wants to build a dam in Marques' territory.
