Description

Filmmaker Roberto Farias' passion for cinema is revealed by his daughter Marise Farias through an intimate look, from childhood to his political, economic and cultural role in Brazilian Cinema. Through Roberto Farias himself and friends such as Luís Carlos Barreto, Cacá Diegues and Zelito Viana, the film tells the stories of the director who achieved a direct dialogue with the public through successes such as O Assalto ao Trem Pagador (1962), the trilogy with singer Roberto Carlos (1968 to 1971) and Pra Frente Brasil (1982). Texts from an unpublished book of memories are interpreted by his brother, actor Reginaldo Faria.
