The Enchanted Ones

By Stéphanie Pommez

A visual tale based on the myths and legends of the Amazon

Within the vast expanse of the Brazilian Amazon forest thrives a community known as the Ribeirinhos or river dwellers. Among them live the traditional midwives who welcome life and share stories as they travel through the rivers that crisscross the landscape. The Enchanted Ones by Stephanie Pommez is a tribute to their legends and myths. These tales are intricately woven into the fabric of the Ribeirinho culture, enriching our understanding of the Amazon forest and the river dwellers' profound connection with their environment. Stephanie Pommez is a photographer and filmmaker based in New York. Her images have been published and exhibited in various countries and her documentary broadcasted on channels such as National Geographic, Arte, TV Cultura, TV5 among others.
