The Dead Parade is a horror feature film, that tells the story of Catarina, a woman who lived her early childhood in a small logging village, on the banks of the Santa Bárbara River, but after the early death of her mother, she was sent by her father to live and study in Europe, from where she never returned. Until the day she received a message saying that her old man was very ill, which makes Catarina returns to her hometown after many years.
Even she getting there by plane and using the GPS of her cellphone, turns out this small village looks to live in another era, kind of a dystopian past, where she finds all the people closed in their own homes, with the streets completely empty, in a kind of quarantine, because they believe that every year, for the river to fill and the wood to flow, Santa Bárbara takes a drowned soul into her waters in exchange for rain. That's why everyone locks themselves in their house the week before the Dead Parade, afraid of being their soul washed away by the river.
It is in this ghost village that Catarina arrives to find out her grandparents papers and her family's history. And it is here that she will come across an agrarian and political conflict between her descendants who arrived from Europe a few decades ago, and the Brazilian people who lived here before. Thus, she soon realizes that her return, the return of this only land heiress, rekindles the revenge flame of many.
However, Catarina soon understands that this layer is still quite superficial, because she discovers, through an old matriarch from the place, that she is involved in this morbid prophecy more than she could imagine. According to the elderly woman, Catarina carries a supposed ancestral connection with the lineage of Saint Barbara, who in the christian mythology was beheaded by her own father, and now, she would have to fulfill the saint's sacred revenge, killing her father by drowning him in the river, the only way to end the prophecy and the deaths of the procession.
So, just when she thought she had understood the story, this fantastic plot appears in front of her like a deep river, where Catarina dives to find a way out. And it is here that she will have to decide what to do with this heritage of hers, made of privileges and a lot of blood. Break with her family and this tradition. Or maintain her colonialist privileges and the status quo.
