Overview
Started in the 1980s, the successful heritage listing process that preserves the architectural history of the Bixiga neighborhood is constantly at risk, but continues to be defended by the community. When a construction on a subway line reveals material traces of the existence of the first urban quilombo recognized in the state's history, the Afro-descendant community and allies come together in an attempt to avoid yet another erasure of their history. The documentary is a portrait of the various popular resistance initiatives in one of the most diverse and culturally vibrant neighborhoods in the capital of São Paulo.
