Vitalino/Lampião

1969 · 9 min · Documentary

From the clay used to make tiles or clay clay, an image of Lampião, the king of Cangaço, begins to emerge through the work of ceramicist Manuel Vitalino dos Santos. According to the artist, son of Mestre Vitalino, the most famous clay artisan in the Northeast, it would be preferable to abandon the art rather than having to change his artisanal production method. Tradition and consumption are discussed when the art arrives to be sold at the Caruaru Fair in Pernambuco. The soundtrack is provided by the voice of singer Severino Pinto.
