The Blue Trail

(O Último Azul)

Part adventure film, part dystopian sci-fi and part coming of (old) age story, The Blue Trail is the vibrant and playful new film from acclaimed Brazilian filmmaker Gabriel Mascaro (Neon Bull, Divine Love).

In the near future, the Brazilian government has created ‘colonies’ where older people are sent to live the last few years. 77-year-old Teresa, however, refuses to accept that fate. She is instead determined to fulfill her ultimate dream - to fly in an airplane. After breaking free from the authorities, she embarks on an eventful boat voyage down the Amazon river to find a willing pilot. Encountering new friends and experiences along the way, she discovers a freedom she never knew she was missing.
