O CAMINHO DO HOMEM
A documentary by Chico de Paula, MG, 2006, 107´.

The onboard diary about a journey along the Caminho do Ouro and adjacent regions based on its landmarks. The guardians of culture reinvent their own history between Ouro Preto and Diamantina, along old slave and explorer trails. Popular wisdom and the colored sound that integrate music and religion, and which are present throughout the Estrada Real, are the true landmarks along this pathway. Preserving and transmitting this knowledge is what permeates all of the documentary, which presents the richness of Minas Gerais rhythms such as the batuque, samba de roda, candombe, catopê, congado, folia de reis, vissungo and the rancheira, eventually arriving at the band.
