This documentary reconstructs the life story of a truck driver who became one of Brazil’s greatest filmmakers. Candeias himself is the narrator for his story, and little by little he lays bare his style and genius. The background are the diverse periods of Brazilian cinema and Boca do Lixo, in São Paulo , a major production hub during the 1970s.
