The 25th Edition of the International Environmental Film and Video Festival (Fica) will feature this year the Saneago Session, a space for the presentation of documentaries about the environment, with a focus on water resources, accompanied by a round table.
Fica takes place between the 11th and 16th of June, in the City of Goiás, and is carried out by the Government of Goiás, through the State Secretariat for Culture (Secult), in co-organization with the Federal University of Goiás (UFG), through from the Educational Radio and Television Foundation (RTVE).
The Saneago Session will present the documentary “Chapada em Modo Avião”, produced by journalist Victor Andrade. At the launch, which will be held on June 15th, at 2pm, at Cine Teatro São Joaquim, there will be a question and answer session, with the participation of Saneago employees.
The paradisiacal settings of Chapada dos Veadeiros, in the North of Goiás, and the positive impacts caused on the lives of the Kalunga people with the arrival of treated water and technical education are portrayed in the documentary. The film shows the Kalunga population – the largest quilombola community in Brazil.
