Memória de Deus e do Diabo em Monte Santo e Cocorobó

Memória de Deus e do Diabo em Monte Santo e Cocorobó

1984 · 11 min · ★ 5.0 · Documentary

Evocation of the paths taken by Glauber Rocha in Monte Santo and Cocorobó, Serra de Canudos, Bahia, when he was filming 'Deus e o Diabo na Terra do Sol'. Parallelism between the vigor and rigor of Antonio Conselheiro and the filmmaker's purposes, driven by eagerness to awaken the conscience of men and promote freedom.
