Truka - In the name of the Enchanteds Documentary

by Thomas Toivonen
(Skinnskatteberg, Sweden)

Truká - In the name of the Enchanteds Documentary is about the Truká-people in the north-east of Brazil. I raised funds by starting a non-profit organization. Then, I received money for the flight-ticket to Brazil by selling mushrooms that we picked in the forest and sled via the organization. Then the organization borrowed money from my mother, so most of the funds came from a private investor.

I used a Nicon D5100 system-camera and for sound a ZOOM Handy Recorder H2. Then I edited the film on my own computer.

I use youtube, social media such a facebook, email-lists etc. to promote the film.
