BASED ON THE BOOK BY DARCY RIBEIRO 00:00:03.814 - 00:00:05.975
"THE BRAZILIAN PEOPLE" 00:00:20.364 - 00:00:21.956
A whole other country... 00:00:33.577 - 00:00:35.738
is the one in the Amazon region. 00:00:36.614 - 00:00:39.174
The native Indians lived there... 00:00:39.383 - 00:00:41.715
and the different tribes were all mixed up by the Jesuits... 00:00:41.919 - 00:00:46.117
and somewhat crossbred with whites and Blacks. 00:00:47.157 - 00:00:52.720
They were all organized as the Caboclos. 00:00:54.798 - 00:00:57.733
CHESTNUT TREE 00:01:20.391 - 00:01:23.292
CABOCLO BRAZIL 00:01:30.067 - 00:01:31.932
The Amazon rain forest has an unique beauty. 00:01:32.136 - 00:01:35.503
Only Brazil and its neighboring countries have that in the world. 00:01:35.706 - 00:01:38.937
That huge piece of land is what I call "the garden of Earth". 00:01:39.243 - 00:01:43.202
Exuberance and mystery caused the Amazon to go down in History... 00:01:50.721 - 00:01:54.384
as a kingdom of myths, as the El Dorado... 00:01:54.592 - 00:01:57.755
a fabulous place full of gold, silver and precious minerals. 00:01:57.962 - 00:02:02.262
It was the home of the legendary Amazon women... 00:02:02.800 - 00:02:06.327
of giants and dwarfs, of men whose feet pointed backwards... 00:02:06.870 - 00:02:11.102
of fantastic drugs and plants. 00:02:11.609 - 00:02:14.077
If I had to tell you what I think about my country... 00:02:29.994 - 00:02:34.988
I would start by saying that it still has pre-Historical roots... 00:02:35.366 - 00:02:40.326
