Sou Carnaval de São Salvador

This documentary delves into the world of white Barbies and dark dolls. What does she mean for children of color who struggle with their self-image and identity in a dominant white society? The Amsterdam doll shop Colorful Goodies sells Barbies, boy dolls and cuddly dolls that every child can recognize; from dolls with different skin colors and professions, to dolls with disabilities. This documentary follows three families of color who take home a doll. What does such a doll mean for your self-image if you struggle with it because you are of color, or because you have to learn to live with albinism? Is our dominant white society as tolerant as we think?

The Mangueira slum is the scenario where Tantinho and the old samba composers remember stories about the slums and samba.

On the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro during its world famous Carnival, far from the beach and the touristic clichés, there is an explosive contest between neighbourhoods. This old form of carnival features teams of futuristic gladiators that are a surreal mixture of play and menace. A tradition that has its roots in ancient European carnival traditions and in African rituals, they look like visitors from another planet.
