From the same authors of A Mãe da Mata and the creator of Pavulagem.
Forget superheroes! Here in my village, deep in the Amazon rainforest, there are people just like us who turn into animals. For real!
For Ribeirinhos and Indigenous communities, transforming into a jaguar, snake, or horse is a genuine mystery. It is understood as a gift or a destiny for those chosen to cross the boundary between the human and animal worlds. These stories teach us that bodies hold powers, memories, and secrets that are often impossible to explain.

An independent journalist holding a master’s degree in Human Sciences from the State University of Amazonas and currently pursuing a doctorate in Social Anthropology at the Federal University of Amazonas, he has dedicated his career to championing the voices and knowledge of the Amazon.
He is the creator of the Pavulagem podcast, which tells stories of the forest's enchanted beings, drawing on the memories and voices of riverine and Indigenous people. Spanning two seasons, the podcast became the most-listened-to in the country's North.
Maickson also works as an independent journalist and social media content creator. In addition, he produced the animated film Origem da Noite, has been a TED speaker, and co-authored A Mãe da Mata with Chico Santos, a book also published by Editora Caixote.
Chico Santos holds a degree in Art Education and a postgraduate qualification in Interactive Media; he worked as a director of television programs and advertising videos before dedicating himself fully to contemporary art. A father and an artist, he lives and works in Londrina (Paraná), a region where he conducts research into the relationships between nature, urban growth, and local legends and myths.
Through visual metaphors and memories, he constructs a strange, dreamlike reality in an attempt to preserve the anima of the forests in the face of urban encroachment upon environmental areas. His work has been featured in biennials, festivals, and artist residencies around the world.
