The film has been shown at several film festivals and art shows, such as the 29th São Paulo Art Biennial , the Havana Film Festival and the Toulouse Latin American Film Festival. Her next film, Lands (2009), is a documentary essay on the triple border between Brazil, Colombia and Peru, also in the Amazon. The film premiered at the Locarno International Festival and was shown in more than forty festivals and museums around the world, such as DOK Leipzig, São Paulo International Film Festival, MoMA e New Museum of Contemporary Art. Lands received the “Las Cámaras de La Diversidad” award at the Guadalajara International Film Festival (México), among other prizes.[1] Variety magazine considered the film “a gorgeous work of art”.[2]

In 2011, during her residency at Le Fresnoy, made the short film French Version (2011), which appropriates the dialogues of iconic French films to depict two foreigners who meet in a hotel room, in Paris.[3] The film received the Jury's Mention and the RTP “Onda Curta” acquisition award at the Luso-Brazilian Film Festival (Portugal).[4]

In the following years, Da-Rin made two video installations: Event Horizon (2012), also produced by Le Fresnoy,[5] and Camouflage (2013), made during an artistic residency at the LABoral Centro de Arte y Creación Industrial, in Spain.[6] Event Horizon was considered by French critic Annick Rivoire “the most representative project of contemporary art” shown that year at Le Fresnoy.[7] The work was exhibited at the Contemporary Art Centre, in Vilnius (Lithuania) and at the La Maldite Gallery, in Paris.[8]

Her first fictional feature film, The Fever (2019) was developed with the support of the Cinéfondation screenplay residency from the Cannes Film Festival as well as of the TorinoFilmLab.[9] The film premiered at the official competition of the Locarno Festival, in Switzerland, where it won the Golden Leopard for Best Actor for Regis Myrupu, the FIPRECI International Film Critics Award and the Young Jury Prize.[10] The Fever took part in more than sixty film festivals and received thirty awards, including Best Film at Pingyao International Film Festival (China), Biarritz Film Festival (France), IndieLisboa (Portugal), Mar del Plata International Film Festival (Argentina), Festival de Brasilia (Brazil) e Best Direction at Chicago International Film Festival (USA) and Rio International Film Festival (Brazil).

The Fever had an excellent reception by Brazilian and international critics. It was considered by critic and programmer Diego Batlle “the most convincing debut film in Latin American cinema in recent years". [11] Francisco Russo, critic of the electronic magazine AdoroCinema, considered The Fever “a film as rarely seen in Brazilian cinema”,[12] while critic José Geraldo Couto said the film is “a milestone” in the way indigenous characters are portrayed in movies.[13] French critic Beatrice Loayza, from Cinema Scope magazine, considered the film “essential cinema, demanding empathy (...) and spotlighting indigenous people with an attention to its cultural specifics that few films are able to elaborate ".[14]
