The Transamazonica: Between Heaven and Earth (2023)
Directed by Sylvestre Campe, Albert Knechtel
Documentary, TV Movie · 52m
Aboard his microlight plane, Sylvestre Campe explores the famous Trans-Amazonian route, meeting with the people living in this deep and mixed Brazil. The Transamazônica breaks through the Brazilian forest over 4,300 kilometers. Millions of tons of raw materials pass through this huge road, which ends in a dead end in the middle of the jungle. On board his paramotor, the explorer unveils the immensity, the beauty and the scars of the landscape, and sets off to meet people: poor farmers in the Northeast , a young gold digger who dreams of standing out on social networks, a young indigenous activist, a couple who sacrificed their youth to build the road... Between heaven and earth, we go on a great road movie, which draws a real picture of this Amazonian Wild West.
