Overview: “We know that the wildest and most touching dramas do not take place in the theater, but in the hearts of ordinary men and women who pass by without attracting attention, and who do not show the world the conflicts in their souls – except, possibly, in situations of collapse.” — Carl Gustav Jung
Cerrado is a small town like many others scattered along the Anhanguera highway, in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. A city where men’s shadows are bigger than trees. Come, make the turn into the back roads and enter the town under the strong countryside sun. “Inland Shadows” comprises ten tales about people who will be more familiar than they seem at first. Stories of struggle and deception; of love and anger; of construction and destruction. What do these people do when they are with their relatives? With their co-workers, friends and acquaintances? Also important: what do these people do when they are all alone? What do we all do when no one is looking?
Enter Cerrado and meet again the people you haven’t seen yet. It will be a beautiful trip.
