TAINÁ – AN AMAZON LEGEND

Category: Edition 2014

Synopsis

Tainá is a 5 year old orphan Indian girl who lives in the Amazon Rainforest dreams of becoming a warrior and discovering her true origin. Along the way, she makes unexpected friends such as Laurinha, a lost city girl, and Gobí, a nerd Indian boy. The three children learn to overcome their mutual differences while going through their eventful journey. Tainá confronts the ancestral enemy of her family, Jurupari, the incarnation of Evil, who wants to destroy the Forest. This film concludes the trilogy about the fictional saga of this Brazilian character who reached international recognition thanks to the success of the two previous pictures: TAINÁ – AN AMAZON ADVENTURE (2001), directed by Tania Lamarca and Sérgio Bloch; and TAINÁ 2 – A NEW AMAZON ADVENTURE (2004), which was directed by Mauro Lima and screened at the GFF 2005. The film is 100% shot in the Amazon Rainforest.
