O mestre e o Divino
Description
Two filmmakers portray life in the village and in the mission of Sangradouro, Mato Grosso: Adalberto Heide, an eccentric German missionary, that soon after the contact with the Indians, in 1957, starts to film with his Super-8 camera; and Divino Tserewahu, a young Xavante filmmaker, that produces films for television and cinema festivals since the 90's. Shifting between complicity, competition, irony, and affect, they give life to their historical records, revealing peculiar back-stages of indigenous catechizing in Brazil.
