Jonathas has been fascinated by the Jangadeiros since his youth. He is captivated by the way the sailboats roll smoothly on and off the beach and tries to capture this choreography. He does not romanticize their lifestyle but creates a monument to their vulnerable existence in a country marked by inequality.
