Pixote - 30 Anos Depois

A return to the story of Nazi doctor Josef Mengele's passage through South America. Conspiracy theories report that the border of Diadema, Sao Bernardo do Campo, and Sao Paulo was the center of German immigration. In the Eldorado neighborhood, on the border of these cities and bathed by the Billings Dam, lived a gentleman named Pedro Hochbichler, one of the aliases adopted by the alleged Mengele. Mengele fled to the US leaving a double in Brazil.

Before ending World War II, Nazi Germany, realizing it was going to lose the war, planned an escape route so that its high-ranking officers would not be convicted. Thousands of Nazis fled along these routes, with the help of the CATHOLIC CHURCH and the RED CROSS to America. Passports were issued and many criminals escaped and lived prosaically across America in exchange for German money and technology. These trails were called: RATILINES or TRACK OF THE RATS

The Legend of the Paraguay War Legend tells that during the Paraguay War (1864-1870), families that lived near the border and soldiers who were leaving for battle used to hide their valuable belongings by burying them in secret spots, in order to safely recover them after the war. In several cases, though, the only people who knew about the secret spots of those personal treasures died before they could go back to recover them. According to inhabitants of that region, the spirits of those tormented men would reveal the location of those "buried and hidden" treasures to chosen people in their dreams, visions or by haunting them. "The Legend of the Paraguay War" approaches local legends in a historic and literary way. Those legends were born from within the biggest conflict in South America, and were developed and influenced by the local imaginary view of the world and which can be considered a relevant part of those people's identity up to this day
