A Holistic Approach to Cinema

“Nawa Sia” stands apart by integrating therapeutic elements aimed at creating a deeply meditative viewing experience. Isabella Vieira has meticulously crafted the film with the young Monaco team to engage all five senses. Aromatherapy will be incorporated in screenings with the scent of the forest diffused into the theater, while the sound design operates at 432 Hz—often referred to as the “Earth frequency”—to promote balance and well-being. Music, recorded at the same healing frequency, aims to stimulate cellular regeneration and harmonize the brain, offering viewers a unique, soothing escape.

The film is not just a cinematic endeavour but also a session in emotional and mental healing. By focusing on the interconnectedness of humans with nature, Vieira and the Monaco team seek to help audiences reconnect with themselves in a profound way.

A Monegasque Collaboration

While the film shines a spotlight on the Amazon, its production team includes Monaco’s emerging talent. Liam Fabre, a passionate young videographer from Monaco, joins Vieira as a key collaborator on the project. Fabre’s inclusion speaks to Vieira’s belief in the potential of Monegasque youth, providing them with opportunities to explore, learn, and create impactful art. Isabella Vieira, film director, wanted to build around her a team of passionate individuals who are committed to using cinema as a tool for change—both environmentally and spiritually.

A Voice for Indigenous Wisdom

At its heart, “Nawa Sia”is a film that celebrates and amplifies the voices of the indigenous peoples of the Amazon.

The film not only showcases breathtaking visuals of the Amazon but also features authentic traditional music and rituals, offering audiences a raw and respectful insight into a way of life that could hold the key to saving the planet.

The documentary also portrays the resilience of these communities, focusing on local efforts to protect the forest from destruction. Through a blend of hope and resistance, Isabella Vieira film calls for global action to support these indigenous groups and preserve their sacred connection to the land.
