Plot
A story from Jorge Amado.
Sinekatalog’s take
Nelson Pereira dos Santos adapts Jorge Amado's story of a Bahian mixed-race scholar whose work is ignored in life and celebrated after death. It is lively, funny and proud of Bahia's culture, with a pointed look at racism.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
