A poetic, intellectually rigorous documentary essay that honors Cinema Novo's revolutionary spirit through the voices of its creators, blending film history with political and artistic philosophy.

A deep investigation, in the way of a poetic essay, on one of the main Latin American movements in cinema, analyzed via the thoughts of its main authors, who invented, in the early 1960s, a new way of making movies in Brazil, with a political attitude, always near to people's problems, that combined art and revolution.
