Documentary about the relationship between humans and the ocean. The inspiration of artists guides the storyline, which takes place in coastal villages along the Atlantic and Pacific where there is a strong connection to the sea.
The care within families is emphasized. Mythologies, discoveries, the development of societies by the sea, and the enchantment with the ocean and the lives of artists like Dorival Caymmi, Pablo Neruda, and Paul Gauguin are depicted in contemplative scenes.
The work aims to highlight Brazilian cultural traits and their relationship with the sea—beliefs, different cultures along the coast, artists and athletes who challenge the big waves; to bring to the audience’s attention the strong connection with the sea of great artists like Pablo Neruda, Dorival Caymmi, and the impressionist painter Paul Gauguin; to discuss the influence and importance of the oceans on our lives, and to show the intimate relationship between feelings, art, overcoming challenges, and the emotional struggles of the human being.
