Vale: Is It Worth It?
10/10/2023 @ 12:00 am
Please join us for the UK premier of the documentary Vale? Is It Worth It? Five artists in the front line against Brazil’s worst environmental crime.
Come and see theatre and music performances, watch the film about how Brazil’s artists respond to the country’s worst environmental disaster, and then join us in a conversation about how Wales and Brazil are connected in social, environmental and industrial crimes. We will then finish the evening with a rowdy crowd sing along to your favourite songs of protest and survival.
Friday 27th October, from 7pm
Tickets: FREE (link in bio)
The screening will be followed by a panel discussion with the director and a Q&A session (link to get a ticket in bio)
Synopsis:
Through music, poetry and circus performances, five Brazilian artists talk about their grief, fears and hope four years after the Brumadinho Dam collapsed, killing 300 people.
The documentary (30’), directed by Paul Heritage and Marcelo Barbosa (Indianara, 2019) focuses on the impact of the collapse on the artistic and cultural heritage of this rich mining region in Brazil and asks – Is it worth it?
The documentary was produced by Peoples Palace Projects as a result of an international research project Roots of Resilience by People’s Palace Projects/ Queen Mary University of London and University of Manchester. The study mapped the value of tangible and intangible heritage of the Iron Quadrangle in Brazil in partnership with five local artistic organisations directly impacted by mining activity.
