A feature documentary about the Cumbe Quilombo, in Aracati, Ceará, one of the first communities in the state to receive a wind farm, built on its land without consultation. It follows the "children of the wind", born to local women and the workers who came to build the parks, against the community's long history of struggle. Clean energy, the film asks: clean for whom?

Rogerio absolutely surpassed our expectations with his technical expertise, organizational skills, and professionalism. […] He not only ran the booth both technically and practically, but was so well acquainted with the project that he was also able to confidently present and hold the room for hundreds of visitors each day.
Rogerio excels when working with new visual media equipment and platforms. He learns through play by exploring the edges of possibility with emerging tools and therefore produces unique, professional, and detailed outcomes that make his work stand out.
Rogério is a very special person, and one of the most hardworking and talented people I've crossed paths with. He's imaginative, curious, resourceful, and a true team player. I recently asked Rogério to be the Technical Director on my upcoming XR film, because I deeply value his ability to balance compelling storytelling with refined technical skill.
Rogério took my recordings and transformed them overnight into an engaging video which brought in new readers to my book, The Wanderers. He has a phenomenal eye, is great with pacing, and is a real pleasure to work with.
Rogério was a standout leader whose creative energy and positive outlook permeated the Content Creator Academy at the University of Southern California in summer 2026. He is a diligent reporter who cares deeply about journalism and the environment.
Working with Bié means getting to use creativity in a unique way, with a lot of sensitivity involved!
From the start, he stood out for his creativity, his skill at translating complex concepts into content grounded in young people's reality, and his ability to work well in a team. During the Educathon, a project marathon with teenagers, he mentored 2 teams, showing leadership, sensitivity and commitment.
