    • Much of the humanity's naval heritage is represented in Brazilian traditional boats, more the in any other country in the world.

      MADE CROOKED TO STAY STRAIGHT reveals the nautical knowledge of Brazil's anonymous sailboat craftsmen, presenting their simple sheds and the original communities where that knowledge was passed from generation to generation, in contrast to the drama of an activity threatened with extinction.
