A film by Orlando Bomfim Netto, member of the Capixaba Collection.
Through documentary images, old photographs and interviews, the director presents the Santa Tereza cable car, not only as an original means of transport and tourist element, but also as an important part of the history of the city of Rio de Janeiro.
Artistic documentary that combines images of human beings and nature to achieve a highly significant aesthetic result. Irrational deforestation in Itaúnas (northern Espírito Santo, Brazil) makes the village vulnerable to sand blown by the intense winds. In 1968, the region becomes uninhabitable, producing a living example of ecological disaster.
