Basic Sanitation, the Movie

Within a quaint village, inhabited by descendants of Italian settlers in the Serra Gaúcha region, an ongoing issue looms large—the dire need for a sewage treatment cesspool. This longstanding emergency has perennially been overlooked by the authorities. In a bid to address this pressing concern, a dedicated commission resolves to seek assistance from the sub-prefecture. Much to their dismay, they receive the disheartening news that no funds are allocated for essential sanitation purposes. Paradoxically, there exists a surplus designated for video production. Seizing this unforeseen opportunity, the group embarks on the creation of a video centered around the theme of basic sanitation. Little did they anticipate that their amateur production would captivate their collective dedication, ultimately leading to an unexpected recognition—a coveted award within their city.
