 Adriana
Figueiredo works as a scriptwriter, director, producer,
and actress in film and television in Brazil. Tainá-Kan,
the Big Star is her first animation, and tells a popular Karajá
story about a young woman who falls in love with a star. Figueiredo
consulted with Daniel Coxini, the mayor of Fontoura, a Karajá
village on the Ilha do Bananal in Tocantins, Brazil, in the production
of Tainá-Kan, the Big Star, and worked with Karajá
singers on the film's soundtrack. She has directed other shorts
such as the musical comedy Botando pra Quebrar/Propaganda,
Lies, & Samba and played Marina in the popular Brazilian
soap opera Antônio Maria. Figueiredo began making
Super-8 films in the 1970s, and in 1978 was the executive producer
of Samba of the Creation of the World, a film about Afro-Brazilian
origin stories. She was born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, where
she currently lives.
"In my films the camera is my eye. The camera moves as the
action moves in a sort of dancing, in a sort of choreography,
leading the viewer (even myself) into a trip to the story that
is being told."
