I Saw a Warewolf (Eu vi um Lobisomem)

by Thiago Beckenkamp, Brazil, 2024, 10' - out of competition

A man recounts how, as a child, his grandfather's words changed his opinion about the mysterious and talked-about figure of a neighbor who was associated with frightening apparitions.
A demonstration of how an intergenerational dialogue can lead to overcoming prejudice and understanding that what scares us does not always constitute a real danger.
