Short film by Brazilian filmmaker Ozualdo Ribeiro Candeias.

Chronicles the life of military lieutenant, later communist militant and Brazilian politician Luiz Carlos Prestes.

The old man is all of us. The sea is life. The lake, solitude.

In a small town in the pampas of Rio Grande do Sul, economic and agrarian changes are directly affecting the lives of small farmers. Nepomuceno, a man who has worked all his life raising cattle, suddenly finds himself threatened by a large soy producer who is interested in his land. The conflict becomes more intense when it affects members of his family and old Nepo has to defend his land and his family at all costs.

Five directors with five completely different cinematic styles go on an affectionate journey through each one of the five states bathed by the gigantic São Francisco River. Faith, passions, legends and the search for survival in the riverside communities of this river full of colors, which cuts through the dry hinterlands and flows into the exuberant sea of Northeastern Brazil.

Ricardo is 10 years old, lives in the interior of Rio Grande do Sul and has nightmares about Velho do Saco, sort of a Brazilian bogeyman, “who takes out the eyes of misbehaving children”. It is not easy to distinguish truths and lies when the loss of innocence is confused with the loss of sight.

The travel of the ambientalist Ernesto Galiotto throught the São Francisco River in Brazil, with his monomotor plane.
