The colony was founded in 1890, in the municipality of Palmeira, in the state of Paraná, by a group of Italian libertarians mobilized by the writer and agronomist Giovanni Rossi. The Colony remained until 1894. Through interviews with researchers and descendants of those pioneers, carried out in Palmeira and Curitiba, the documentary aims to rescue the memory of this unique episode in the country's history. The documentary began production in 2023 and has already had several public screenings in 2024 (São Paulo, Salvador, Curitiba, Lisbon, Milan, etc.).
