This review analyzes the documentary Xawara e saúde, directed by Daniela Muzi. The documentary presents the struggle of Yanomami groups and health professionals in Boa Vista, Roraima, in the midst of the Public Health Emergency of National Importance declared on January 20, 2023 by the Ministry of Health. The documentary highlights key locations in this crisis, such as the Casa de Saúde Indígena Yanomami (CASAI-Y), and listens to representative characters for the understanding of the message of the work. In this way, it is conducive to the viewer to reflect on the complexity of the culture-health-territory trinity for the local inhabitants, considering, additionally, the radical history of invasions, xawara (epidemics) and suffering.
