No ritmo da resistência: memórias do carnaval de Santa Maria 2026

Directed by Gabriela de Almeida

From the legacy inherited from Alcione Flores do Amaral to the founding vision of Antônio Marcos Magalhães da Rosa, the film traces a timeline that bridges the splendor of past parades with the silent struggle of the present. Under the leadership of Sérgio Silva and Mirela, the narrative reveals how these schools transformed into centers of social and cultural resistance during the ten-year hiatus of official parades.
