Written and directed by Tuna Espinheira, "The Imaginary of Juraci Dórea in the Backlands of Veredas" takes a loving journey through the history of the artist from Feira de Santana, whose work gained worldwide recognition in the 1980s. The 52-minute documentary is based on the 'Projeto Terra' - a series of installations made of wood and leather in isolated regions of the interior of Bahia. The film shows the trajectory of this artist from Bahia (now 70 years old), who took the harsh and dry reality of the backlands beyond the country's borders. The film shows his return to the places where he first exhibited, reliving a bit of that past. Juraci Dórea is the character who transformed the backlands of Bahia into a huge open-air museum.
