Tânia Carvalho

Hilário Pestana, the most famous, funniest and, ironically, saddest Brazilian actor, has died. He has passed through many stages of Brazilian cinema: the chanchadas, the Vera Cruz classics, the pornochanchadas, and even experimental movies. He was beloved by the public and had a gift for laughter, but he only desired to be a serious man.

The documentary celebrates the poetic legacy of Lupicínio Rodrigues, investigating the musical contribution and historical context of this composer born in Rio Grande do Sul and author of hits that surpass generations.
