In times of political, sanitary and climatic crises, which violently impact indigenous peoples, the I Mostra CineFlecha: (Re) Existir e Curar presents - between October 1st and 15th - a set of films that reflects the power and diversity of contemporary indigenous cinema.

Divided into four thematic sessions, the films show the different ways in which indigenous peoples tirelessly continue to mobilize ways of (re) existing - resisting and existing again, and curing - through ancient and contemporary knowledge and practices, in the face of the hegemonic forces related unsustainable ways of life.

This panel, motivated by the proposal of ADPF 709 by the Articulation of Indigenous Peoples of Brazil (Apib) in the Supreme Federal Court, is dedicated to a shared analysis of the concept of genocide, as it has been articulated in the struggles of indigenous peoples, in the humanities and social, in legal practice. At the center of the debate are an examination of the elements that make it possible to characterize the Brazilian government's stance towards indigenous peoples in the context of the covid-19 pandemic as genocidal and an assessment of possible joint coping strategies, linking research, information and the defense of human rights. . To this end, the Panel brings together researchers and indigenous activists and partners, stimulating interdisciplinary debate and intercultural dialogue, understanding the cooperation of knowledge as fundamental to the achievement of effective actions to combat the pandemic among indigenous peoples, in the absence of the state.
