BuenosAires

Portuguese original
On Pernambuco's Zona da Mata, Northeastern of Brazil, the municipality of Buenos Aires bares the same name of Argentina's capital. A Spanish teacher introduces the characters and places of the city, a landscape of social contrasts with influences from different cultures. Despite no sight of Porteños there, some locals insist on the coincidence by many ways, and develop an emotional attachment to the neighboring country. Soccer games, a hometown team's parade, and the arrival of an argentine strengthen such connections during the 2022 World Cup.
