More Earth Will Fall (2017) Online

For Vito and his family, precarity is a daily reality in Rocinha. On some days gunshots can be heard across the throng of huts embedded in Rio's steep mountainous landscape. On these days, the family will sit, huddled on the floor of their tiny hut, until they cease. On other days, Vito gazes up at the hut that is home and shelter to his family, to assess whether the fragile walls will hold up the ceiling for another day, or whether more earth will fall. Personal is political in the heart of one of Rio's most conflict-ridden favelas. The precarity of daily life is mirrored in the structural precarity of the favela, which each day threatens to collapse. But this is life in Rocinha, and when a different kind of tragedy strikes for Vito, we witness the resilience and strength at the heart of this community.
