“Time to go back and back again”
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Marília, Marcelo and Mateus travel from Rio de Janeiro to Pernambuco, their homeland. Unable to meet as many friends and family as before, what remains in the empty places is the memory from when they lived there. As they wander between past and present, their affection comes to light, for they know that soon the trip will come to an end and those places will remain only in their memories once again.

About to turn 100 years old, Santo Amaro School closed its doors in 2020, amid the pandemic, leaving former students in deep sorrow. The story of the school is now told by different generations of students, teachers, nuns and employees, who return to the school building to remember their time over there: an unreachable past, which, through memories, becomes present once again.

Ela mesma
In the middle of a broadcast about Typhoon Yolanda's initial impact, reporter Jiggy Manicad was faced with the reality that he no longer had communication with his station. They were, for all intents and purposes, stranded in Tacloban. With little option, and his crew started the six hour walk to Alto, where the closest broadcast antenna was to be found. Letting the world know what was happening to was a priority, but they were driven by the need to let their families and friends know they were all still alive. Along the way, they encountered residents and victims of the massive typhoon, and with each step it became increasingly clear just how devastating this storm was. This was a storm that was going to change lives.
