SYNOPSIS Pedro is 4 years old, and the small village where he lives with his family, full of trees, neighbors, and play, is located in the heart of São Paulo and is set to be demolished to make way for a new building. Through Pedro’s gaze and imagination, the documentary confronts the adult world, shaped by real estate speculation and the destruction of memory. From a child’s perspective, the film reflects on childhood, nature, and the city’s ongoing changes.
