Rodrigo Guimarães, director of the short film entitled “Beyond the Edge”, lived, for more than a year, with children from the peripheral neighborhoods of Diamantina, M.G., Brazil, as well as with the pickers who worked at the landfill on the outskirts of Diamantina. This immersion work made it possible to record unusual scenes that are capable of expressing, even if minimally, a dense part of the reality of these people’s lives. Moments of relaxation, play, joy or hard work captured by a câmera that aims to bring dignity to the livers of people who are on the margins of a society that has naturalized the processes of exile and exclusion.
