Synopsis
Apiyemiyekî? is a cinematographic portrait that departs from Brazilian educator and indigenous rights militant Egydio Schwade's archive - Casa da Cultura de Urubuí - found in his home at Presidente Figueiredo (Amazonas), where over 3.000 drawings made by the Waimiri-Atroari, a people native to the Brazilian Amazon, during their first literacy process are currently kept. The drawings document and construct a collective visual memory from their learning process, perspective and territory while attesting to a serie of violent attacks they were submitted to during the Military Dictatorship in Brazil.
