Sobradinho (2020): Cast

During the 1970s, the construction of the Sobradinho dam and hydroelectric plant led to the displacement of a population, resulting in one of Brazil's largest forced migrations. Under the military regime, the town was chosen for its perceived lack of local resistance, submerging four cities and numerous villages. Approximately 73,000 people were forced to relocate. Years later, Mrs. Pequenita returns to the abandoned town, where she is visited by three social agents who bring with them old photographs and videos documenting the region's history.
