Curupira: The Mother of the Forest

Waterbear Original

Curupira is the story of a powerful Amazonian goddess told through the voices of the Borarí people from the heart of the forest in Pará, Brazil. She is the all powerful guardian of all living beings in the forest. And while she is generous, if you disrespect her home, her punishments are merciless. Her warnings are more relevant than ever in a contemporary reality where the forces of agri-business and logging are decimating the forest faster than we can protect it.
