"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

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
