Alma André Castilho Creative Director

ABOUT

I directed Patchwork Garden, shaping its concept and post-production, and shared the set direction with Nicoly Cruvinel. The film showcases the resilience of three women from São Paulo’s outskirts, who transform personal pain into community care. Through mental health, resilience, and grassroots solidarity, it portrays invisible struggles and collective healing.

What began as a story of vulnerability unfolds into a reflection on how leadership can emerge from everyday survival, and how small acts of care can resonate into broader social change.
