Deep within the Amazon rainforest, a small, eye-shaped fruit holds an ancient secret. This session explores the Sateré-Mawé legend of the origin of guarana, a tale of nature, memory, and the invisible bonds between the beings of the forest. The story comes alive through images, original songs performed by Nídia Elisa and Hamilton Catette, and a surprising array of instruments that envelop the audience in a richly nuanced musical atmosphere.

The storytelling session ends with an interactive game, and at the end of the activity, the audience will be invited to try out the instruments in a moment of free experimentation.

This activity is part of the family program Mythological Christmas, an open and free space del Círculo which invites families to play, create, and imagine together through art, myths, and culture. If you'd like to see the full program, Check it out here.
