Amazônia Viva, a 10-minute film, is an immersive experience through the Tapajós river region, utilizing 360° filming to unveil one of the most important places on the planet and, thus, bring it even closer to people.
Cacique Raquel Tupinambá – from the Surucuá community, where she is also an important indigenous leader – hosts the experience and guides the viewer during the fully interactive virtual journey through one of the most important and beautiful biomes, unfortunately threatened by human action.
During the journey, the audience feels as if they are physically in the region; they can sense all the energy while witnessing the beauty and hearing the sounds of the forest – the sunrise, the birds singing, the rustling of leaves, the movement of the river water – and truly enjoy all the sensations that a 3D experience can provide.
In this way, the audience engages, connects, and becomes aware of the need to preserve and propose and support solutions that help contain the climate crisis and deforestation of the Amazon.
“By experiencing the region, everyone will become aware that they belong to that space, that it is necessary to keep the forest alive, and that it integrates with people and culture.
The film is a project of the Interfaith Rainforest Initiative (IRI-BRASIL), written and directed by filmmaker Estevão Ciavatta from Pindorama Filmes. Here is the link to the film: https://amazoniavr.com.br
