The Land of São Saruê

00:00:01 "THE LAND OF SÃO SARUÊ" WAS RESTORED...

00:01:42 FROM THE BRAZILIAN CINEMA RESEARCHERS' CENTER.

00:05:39 the desert, the branches.

00:08:08 Within the woods, the brave natives' cries:

00:16:13 these people see cattle as a playful reason for relaxation...

00:21:02 Freedom wanders aimlessly in Father Sá's dreams!

00:25:08 That same girl, the same, now picks beans.

00:31:04 that our cotton will weigh heavy on the buyer's scales.

00:34:08 The peasants, unable to honor their debts...

00:36:55 The firstborn was André Gadelha, former State vice-governor...

00:39:14 They live under the yoke of private banks...

00:41:34 Down there, my work. Look how much I'm worth.

00:46:42 to show how the population can unite forces...

00:49:42 THE PEACE CORPS VOLUNTEERS SENT PROTEST LETTERS...

00:51:45 It was very frantic. There were a lot of shops, hardware stores...

00:54:01 There's gold on the foothills of Imarés, in Ceará, as well.

00:56:45 When I got there, I wanted to dig for gold, but I couldn't.

00:58:43 with a 50O cruzeiros bill.

01:00:53 150 people have gone away already.

01:03:12 When someone died...

01:06:15 Mayors of several towns and private individuals...

01:13:49 The land where I sow my seeds is deep...

01:16:38 the drought, the flood. And the drought puts people in the streets.

01:19:17 of the government and offices' attention.
