This movie shows one more of the facets of the brazilian people. The film runs in a small village in Sertao, Bahia - northeast Brazil. The local people need someone that can write their stories to save this small town called Javé. The only one that can write is Antônio Biá, who in the past used the community to save his job and to his own profits, and after that he ended up being banished. But now they need his services...
And then the story goes by all the reports given by the dwellers, and how they are dueling to see who's report is the right one, whose's report is going to be written down...But then the "Progress" came and they can't do much about it.
It is a simple story, about modest people, and the beauty of the movie is exactly on that. It is a good movie about this brazilian reality, maybe not really critical, but good.
