"THE BRAZILIAN PEOPLE" |
00:00:10.057 - 00:00:13.549 |
There is still another Brazil... |
00:01:01.308 - 00:01:03.105 |
a Brazil so different... |
00:01:05.212 - 00:01:06.702 |
from the others as it is different
amongst its inhabitants. |
00:01:07.581 - 00:01:11.039 |
It is the Brazil of the gauchos... |
00:01:15.822 - 00:01:17.813 |
of those people who came
from Assunción... |
00:01:20.594 - 00:01:23.586 |
of those whom Portugal called upon to
impose their presence in the South... |
00:01:24.798 - 00:01:30.498 |
and of all the gringos
who ended up there... |
00:01:31.338 - 00:01:34.671 |
who invaded the region as a wave. |
00:01:38.145 - 00:01:39.203 |
SOUTHERN BRAZIL |
00:01:57.464 - 00:02:01.730 |
Southern Brazil
was born to the world... |
00:03:05.565 - 00:03:08.557 |
through the hands
of the Spanish Jesuits. |
00:03:08.769 - 00:03:10.634 |
Before them, there were
the native Indians... |
00:03:10.837 - 00:03:13.328 |
with their wars and cannibalism... |
00:03:13.540 - 00:03:14.939 |
with their belief in a perfect land
which they constantly searched for. |
00:03:15.342 - 00:03:18.573 |
The Jesuits introduced them
to the Missions... |
00:03:20.147 - 00:03:22.479 |
an utopian ideal
with the intention... |
00:03:22.783 - 00:03:24.478 |
of teaching human feelings
to the Amerindians. |
00:03:24.684 - 00:03:26.311 |
The Jesuits thought,
"These pure people... |
00:03:26.887 - 00:03:30.186 |
these angelical Indians who welcome
daily confessions and communions... |
00:03:31.058 - 00:03:36.519 |
