EAMI (2022) | Film by Paz Encina | Official Trailer

A film by Paz Encina There has been an invasion. Eami lost her own kind, and so she started flying. The Asojá, the bird-god-woman of the native Ayoreo Totobiegosode culture, flies and brings the memories of the past, present and future. Today, the Asojá is Eami, a 5 year old girl whose name means Forest and World. She must leave her place while she wonders about death and the meaning of life. EAMI is the story of the Ayoreo Totobiegosode people, told from the trance of a girl caused by pain and healing. A trance granting the ability of an omniscient and timeless look, which, from the mixture between documentary and fiction, becomes the narrator of the story. In her path, she collects memories. She hears the voices of her grandparents, while she is joined by one of her animal friends, the lizard, who guides her. He knows that Eami must leave the forest. She must leave everything behind, and leave, so she doesn’t die there. The Asojá flies, and, as Eami, she flies through her territory one last time. ---------- CAST ANEL PICANERAI / CURIA CHIQUEJNO / DUCUBAIDE CHIQUENOI / BASUI PICANERAI ETACORE / LUCAS ETACORI / GUESA PICANERAI / LAZARO DOSAPEI CUTAMIJO / CATEBIA PICANERE CHIQUEÑO / JONATAN CHIQUEJÑO ETACORE / HERNAN BEGO DOSAPEI CUTAMIJO / JORAINE PICANERAI TESTIMONY PORAI PICANERAI / ÑACOE ETACORE CHIQUENO / ESOI CHIQUENOI PICANERE / IJAO ETACORO PICANERE / CHÍCODE CHIQUENOI / BERUI PICANERAI PARTICIPATION VERÓNICA CABAÑAS / ANIBAL ORTIZ / MARTÍN OVIEDO MEMBERS OF CHAIDÍ COMMUNITY PRODUCED BY SILENCIO CINE IN COPRODUCTION WITH BLACK FOREST FILMS / GAMAN CINE / REVOLVER AMSTERDAM / FORTUNA FILMS / MPM FILM, EAUX VIVES PRODUCTIONS / LOUVERTURE FILMS / SAGAX ENTERTAINMENT / PIANO, BARRACA PRODUCCIONES / GRUPO LVT / SPLENDOR OMNIA / SABATÉ FILMS
