On Ponta Negra beach, in the municipality of Paraty, Brazil, people have always lived by candlelight, without electricity. With the arrival of the "Light for All" programme, initiated by the Federal Government in 2003, the daily life of the small community of Ponta Negra changes profoundly. Director Vinícius Girnys found his protagonist Samuel while filming the people of this village over six years (between 2016 and 2022)l. From the particular case of this child and his family, we follow the transformation of a small community's way of life with the arrival of electricity. And with it, the arrival of tourism.
