Synopsis

At 85 years old, the Brazilian archaeologist Niéde Guidon looks back on a career that included the discovery of cave drawings in the south of Piauí State and established a new theory on the arrival of man on the American continent.

The documentary reconstructs the journey of the first men in this region of Brazil, revealing the face of this prehistoric man - hunter and gatherer, and the contemporary local man - farmer, forester, potter, park ranger, hunter, rancher, miner. Countryside. The primitive and the current. Yesterday and today.

When talking about memory and legacy, the film makes the viewer wonder if the permanence of this treasure of rock painting and everything that was developed to preserve it will resist time and the disappearance of Niéde, as the paintings on the rocks resisted thousands of years and the changes that have occurred over that time.
