In 1783, naturalist Alexandre Rodrigues Ferreira travelled to Amazonia. Centuries later, all that remains from his Philosophical Journey are the artifacts belonging the tribes he studied and the animals and plants he brought over to Portugal, evoking a distant Amazonia and an expedition that went on for nine years.
The design of the poster evokes the new World from the XVIII century with melancholy. The typography, color palette, and the scale of the illustration, underline the concept of distance and fragmented memory present in the narrative of the film.
