Subterrâneo Brasil – Brazilian Film Series
Friday, November 14, 2025, 17:30.
Naturhistorisches Museum der Universität Zürich (Kino), Karl-Schmid-Strasse 4, 8006 Zurich
17:30 Introduction by Prof. Mayara Ribeiro Guimarães (Federal University of Pará, Brazil)
18:00 Film Screening “Amazônia, a nova Minamata?” (Jorge Bodanzky, 2022) (ST/English)
19:30 Talk with the film director Jorge Bodanzky & Apéro
“Subterrâneo Brasil” is a pilot project for a Brazilian film series, which aims to screen one film every semester. The main objective of the event is to foster discussion about the Brazilian cultural context, based on cinematic aesthetic expressions, whether in the field of fiction or documentary, that address social, political, and/or environmental issues in the region. This aspect is evident in the very title of the activity, which stems from the urgency to review and highlight the tensions of contemporary Brazil in its most distinct spectrums, which are buried either by official discourse or by the naturalization and historical systematization of inequalities in the country, which, in turn, are connected to the current phase of neoliberal capital. The first part of the series aims to address the issue of the socio-environmental impact of extractivism in the Amazon region. To this end, we have chosen the documentary “Amazônia, a nova Minamata?” (2022), by Jorge Bodanzky, a Brazilian filmmaker who has been discussing the impact of extractive capitalism in the Brazilian Amazon for decades, whether in the field of logging or mining. The documentary follows the saga of the Munduruku indigenous people as they attempt to contain the destructive impact of gold mining on their ancestral territory, while revealing how Minamata disease, resulting from mercury contamination, now threatens the inhabitants of the entire Amazon region. We believe that the screening of this film, preceded by a brief presentation by a guest researcher, will contribute to a reflection on topics such as (neo)extractivism and the systemic decimation of indigenous peoples, in addition to promoting a critical look at the water and soil crisis that plagues the entire Amazon region.
