In an emotional trip to the artist's homeland, Brazilian singer Lucas Santtana explores the history of carnival’s Bloco Afros, the condition of Brazilian black and indigenous population and the region’s candomblé spiritual fusion on the eve of the country’s historic elections.
Directed by Vladimir Cagnolari and produced by Oléo & No Format, Lucas Santtana, paradise (it’s already here) is an exploration of the Brazilian singer’s homeland, through the lens of his most recent album O Paraíso. The 10 track project released on No Format! asks listeners to rethink the notion of paradise by taking notice of the natural beauty that’s around us and which is slowly disappearing. Now a resident of Montpellier, Lucas makes this trip on the eve of Brazil’s historic presidential election. During president Jair Bolsonaro’s mandate, which lasted from January 2019 to December 2022, the former military captain’s conservative legislation cracked down on social aid and reduced environmental protections.The backdrop to the film, the election is a flashpoint for democracy, environmentalism, nationalism and how we choose to preserve and protect our paradise on Earth.
Lucas will be touring around the UK. Grab your tickets: bit.ly/LucasSanttanaTour
