Synopsis

Cerol e Navalha is, first and foremost, a manifesto. A manifesto that is born from the constant search and struggle for personal expression and affirmation and, like a river that meets another river, converges in the various manifestations of collective expression. Thus, expanding in precedence and resonance with what is yet to come. Cerol e Navalha, now in its book version, represents the materialization of the transformative power of the encounter. The words planted here were once silenced voices, which were once mutilated thoughts, which were once something strange, unknown, felt in every part of our body-home, but which found its way to the seed-letters, became words and transformed them. yourself in this beautiful, sharp and thunderous-poetic-floating-forest, which can now fly, land and pollinate other lives. These lives are almost always victims of the torn-up knife of “non-Being” and not belonging.
