My post-colonial adventurous fantasy. \n(Does a discourse change an image?)\u201d\n\nThinya is a semiotic experiment born from director Lia Let\u00edcia\u2019s experience when she first visited the Old World. As an Afro-Brazilian woman occupying the land of plenty in the other side of the seas, dealing with its natives - so ethnically distinct from her - and discovering its treasures, she imagined an inverted journey like the ones braved by those natives\u2019 ancestors five centuries earlier.\nWhat is the effect of a particular discourse on images of a distant land? \n\nLia Let\u00edcia exploits the power of old narratives and anonymous photographs to explain the importance of what is said, by whom, and over which symbols. The film is a mindful subversion of History, twisting the point of view of centuries-old transatlantic relations, and inviting us to reflect on identity and territory under colonisation. Thinya is narrated in Yat\u00ea, the language of the Fulni-\u00f4 tribe of Northeast Brazil, by Thinya Fulni-\u00f4 (Maria Pastora). Its original music was composed by Claudio N and performed with the help of Fulni-\u00f4 musicians. Experimental composer Thelmo Cristovam was responsible for sound capture, design and editing. The images came from anonymous pictures bought at a flea market in Berlin.","space":"In a dark room, the thinya video will be projected 4 times, 1 without subtitles (only in yathee language), 1 with English subtitle, 1 with Portuguese subtitle and another with Spanish subtitle, simultaneously.
