Bakish Rao: Plant Resistance is a science fiction film that speculates on plantations and the future of the planet from the perspective of plants and through experimentation with the plant universe. With the human perspective off-centre, the film is a collaborative experience between artistic languages and scientific debates, as well as an essay that explores the limits of communication by proposing a multi-species speculation to tell the story of the destruction of the forest and the forms of resistance to the homogenisation of ecology and thought.

After the screening, a discussion of the film with: Denilson Baniwa, Comando Matico (online), Renato Sztutman, Jamille Pinheiro (online), Emanuele Fabiano, Karen Shiratori
