Baixada: In Cubatão's Waters

Cubatão, Vila dos Pescadores. In the cyclical rhythm of her days, the fisherwoman Zilda seeks a way to disconnect from the hostility her community has been enduring due to the violence imposed by various municipal authorities. Torn between relocating her life elsewhere and remaining resilient in the place where she was raised, she finds herself facing deeper questions about her future—both in the world and in the art of fishing.
