Tentehar means the real man. During the presidential election in Brazil, the film investigates the civilizational, political, human rights and environmental crisis that is taking over the country. The Araribóia Indigenous Land tribe preserves its sustainable lifestyle and saw one of its leaders being murdered by loggers in 2019. The film seeks to portray what moves men to fight for their right to exist in a dignified manner. Based on records of the different ways of survival of the Brazilian people, we are faced with traditional rituals of a mixed race of indigenous people, blacks and whites, who express their own reality and ways of life outside parties or religious paradigms and theories.
"This documentary carries a strong national appeal due to its focus on indigenous people, who are slowly gaining more space in Brazilian cinema. Tentehar means "true man" and this is the story of one of them, the leader of the Arariboia tribe who was murdered by loggers in 2019. 'Tentehar: Architecture of the Sensitive' discusses politics, human rights and the new victims of a seemingly endless civilizational crisis in Brazil."
