O estranho
Brazil / France
The largest airport in Brazil is located in a former indigenous territory. Guarulhos International Airport is a city within a city, hundreds of thousands of passengers are transported daily and 35,000 workers support its operation. The Stranger keeps his gaze not on those who pass by, but on the people who remain there. Throughout the film we follow five characters whose lives intersect on a daily basis at work. The memories, dreams and challenges of Alex, Silvia, Antonia, Benê and Hélder are united by a common issue: the traces of a lost past in a land in constant transformation.
