The film The Blue Trail transports viewers to a future Brazil where the elderly are forcibly relocated to special colonies. When 77-year-old Tereza faces this fate, she refuses to comply. She escapes and begins a remarkable journey through the Amazon rainforest, seeking freedom and new possibilities.
What follows is an original and surprisingly warm road movie about aging, self-determination, and the courage to choose one's own path. Director Gabriel Mascaro blends social critique with humor, adventure, and a touch of surrealism. The film poses a universal question: ‘How does society deal with its elderly?’.
With its strong protagonist and breathtaking images of the Amazon rainforest, The Blue Trail offers a moving and inspiring cinematic experience. It is an ode to resilience, zest for life, and the idea that it is never too late to pursue new dreams.
The screening will take place on October 13, 2026, at Evenementenhal Den Boomgaard, Antwerpsesteenweg 43 in Ranst. Doors open at 7:30 PM and the film begins at 8:00 PM. Admission is free.
