About Chico Antônio, o Herói com Caráter
The rescue of a real character from the work of Mario de Andrade. Chico Antônio is a singer and poacher of the interior of Rio Grande do Norte. As he climbed the stems to reach the fruits, he sang and enchanted those who passed by. And Mário de Andrade was one of those spectators, because he loved the warm climate of the equatorial lands
Directed by Eduardo Escorel, Chico Antônio, o Herói com Caráter leans on a strong ensemble — Chico Antonio, Eduardo Escorel, Deifilo Gurgel — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 1983.
