SHORT FEATURE / Galeguinho - The Backwards Runner - TV Globo
- Henrique Arcoverde (Brazil)
“Galeguinho – The Backwards Runner” is a poetic portrait of Brazil’s heartland. In the arid backlands of Pernambuco, a man known as Galeguinho runs literally backwards, chasing a dream of fame while carrying the weight of his family’s survival. Between dust, devotion, and a stubborn hope, the film captures the beauty and contradiction of a country where ambition and resilience often share the same road.
