Teko Porã is a sensitive immersion into the way of being and living of an Indigenous community on the coast of São Paulo, where tradition and contemporaneity coexist in a delicate balance.

Through songs, rituals, care for the land, and the simple gestures of everyday life, the film follows different generations striving to preserve their ancestral knowledge amid the transformations of the surrounding world. Young people navigating between two worlds, leaders reflecting on the future of their people, and women who sustain community life reveal a living territory shaped by affection, challenges, and quiet resilience.

Developed in close dialogue with the community — who participate in the creative process, narrative construction, and some of the image-making — the film also incorporates internal perspectives shaped by language, listening, and lived experience.

More than a portrait of a specific community, the documentary Teko Porã, A Contemporary Portrait of Everyday Life in the Guarani Rio Silveira Village offers a universal reflection on belonging, identity, and the search for balance between humanity and nature, and between tradition and modernity.
