A great masterpiece by brazilian experimental director Júlio Bressane: enjoy!!!
Based on the story of Father António Vieira, who was born in Lisbon in 1608 and died in Salvador de Bahia in 1697. Considered the first Brazilian author and one of the most important craftsmen of Portuguese language ever, a master of the art of the metaphor, of verbal reasoning and analogies, he was persecuted and condemned by the Portuguese Holy Inquisition for having spoken out against enslavement of the natives, intolerance towards Jews and the policy of colonial exploitation. Vieira is the maximum of the Portuguese language. It was a great challenge to make a film about the music of his words. It was my first truly edited film, in order to suggest Vieira's inter-textualism, I inserted clips of mute films (Júlio Bressane).
