Faces do Brasil Central: cinema as public history

facesdobrasilcentral.com Observed source
Editorial interest 88/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A public-history project documenting workers and inhabitants of Brazil’s Central Plateau through documentary film, testimony, and a memory map.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-16 issue.

Field notes

The project indexes testimony through people, films, and thematic groupings rather than presenting Brasília as a single official story. The homepage identifies 37 documented faces and attaches quotations to documentary references including Conterrâneos velhos de guerra (1990) and Brasília segundo Feldman (1979). Its visible structure also includes a memory map, research section, and an invitation for visitors to submit their own stories, though the extract does not show how those features operate in detail.
