What a sad reality, I wish I was naive enough to believe it was just fiction, but it is a BIOGRAPHY, a perfect film, with great costumes and locations, setting, that delicious accent, Dira Paes always wonderful, a denunciation of modern slavery, the poor working conditions that many rural workers suffer, and the actions of the Ministry of Labor, when justice takes the blindfold off... A cruel reality, a wonderful film... In the 90s, Pureza goes looking for her missing son Abel and finds farms with slave labor practices in the Amazon region. In the interior of the state of Maranhão lives Pureza, a tireless and faithful worker, who supports herself and her family by making clay bricks. When her youngest son, Abel, at 18 years of age, says goodbye to Dona Pureza to go to work, little does she know that years will pass before she is able to find him again. In search of work, Abel is captured by the debt slavery system. Desperate for news of Abel, Pureza begins a long journey in search of her son and, equipped with a small audio recorder and a small camera, begins to collect evidence of forced labor and atrocities committed by farmers in the North of Brazil.
