THE LOST VOICE
Believed to be the first female filmmaker in the Amazon in the 1920’s, Pola Brückner’s life has fallen into obscurity, until her great-grand niece sets out to trace her footsteps only to be confronted with her own purpose as a filmmaker.
What begins as a search for lost footage and family history transforms into a powerful exploration of identity, truth, and purpose across generations.
From Berlin archives to the depths of the Amazon, Christina retraces Pola’s 1929 expedition—uncovering secrets, confronting uncomfortable truths, and discovering unexpected parallels between their lives as women behind the camera.
A story of legacy, resilience, and reclaiming lost voices.
