About

My name is Fred Rahal. For the last 10 years I've been dedicated to combining my professional work with my personal activism, getting closer to socio-environmental productions. As a photographer, I can highlight my participation in the films "Evoé" by Tadeu Jungle and Elaine César and "Way Beyond Weight", directed by Estela Renner. As well as several mini-documentaries for ISA (Instituto Socioambiental), Instituto Iepé and for Partnerships for Forests. I also photographed and edited virtual reality (VR) films, such as "Fire in the Forest", about the forest fires in the Xingu Indigenous Park and "Mud River", both directed by Tadeu Jungle. The latter, about the Samarco dam collapse in Mariana, Brazil, won the Best Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) award in Action Film Award at the UN. As an film editor, I would like to highlight the film "Sob a Pata do Boi", about deforestation and cattle ranching in the Amazon, directed by Marcio Isensee. And as a director, I have four feature-length documentaries: "Silence is a Prayer" (2019), "BR Acima de Tudo" (2020), "Forest Partners" (2021) and "Listen: the land was torn" (2023).
