Though unfinished, the material is nevertheless priceless. What a blessing for us that the film footage was found in a closet. The film, consisting of four unfinished films, begins with an explanation from Orson Welles regarding his Brazilian experience. Welles focuses on Brazilian traditions of the average villager, exposing the poverty of Black Brazilians. The four films range in topic from children during carnival time in Rio to four fishermen sailing along the dangerous Brazilian coast–who are determined to get benefits for their families after their deaths.
