What's the matter with you, Calixto?

Had this weird dream with old Carlinda.

That blind devout that used to live at church's door?

Yes...And I wanted to know the meaning of this dream

How was the dream?

The old lady said that if I dug near the mine I would find a treasure

But...If I look back the treasure would transform itself and destroy the whole world

Heard of many people having dreams like that. They went digging and found gold and silver

Let's speak with the fortune-teller. He knows for sure.

It's me, Cartola! I need a favour from you!

That's what i'm here for.

Dreaming with the blind elderly lady speaking about buried treasure what does it mean, Cartola?

That one that dreams with the blind elderly lady, Speaking of buried treasure

Grabs the hoe. If he thinks, he's already wrong

At midnight, go to the indicated place

And with the moon still high, the treasure will find

But no one wants to dig with Cartola. That's the bishop game.

Then play the donkey and you will win.

Do you believe in that dream, Cartola?

Wasn't it with old Carlinda that you dreamt?

Yes! How do you know?

Then, you were the second one. The old lady is trying to get rid of that treasure.

I, myself, have dreamt that. But what would be the point, digging blind like this...

And what use would the money be?

So? What do you think?

Go dig, man!

Even if one-armed

The world is going to end! Only I will stay alive! I'll be King Sebastian!

That black liquid started to drain

Eulitério, what do you think this is?

Have to check the smell.

It's what I think it was! It's oil!

You will see! They'll go away and take no one else.

No way! There's still plenty of job for many more! Especially for you, who found the oil.

I was thinking of going back to the circus. But it might be good to work on oil.

I'm getting tired of this death business

It's going to be like São Paulo. Old cripples ain't good for the jobs. Everything is like Cartola.

Up 'til now they only grab the young ones.

Strong people. Literates. Office people.

But we can't use anyone else.

The world is going to end! Only I will stay alive and I'll be King Sebastian!

It's a shame you haven't been chosen too. It would be great to leave, to forget this village and everything

Are you crazy, Cartola! Are you getting insane?

No, I'm not! I'm almost seeing! The whole village will be abandoned.

The old lady promised, remember? If you look back, you're all going to be destroyed!

Is that it? The dream.

The old lady in a dream said, what was already expected

The truth already acknowledge, before the dream was dreamt

Fortune that comes from nothing, in the waters of illusion

Comes joined by evil, and only brings desillusion

I'm blind but I'm looking, to see what's to come

The things that I will tell you

Prefering the brothers, that Jesus brings

Given charity to the poor blind, that isn't able to work

Guilhermina!

It's pointless Carlão...They're not paying much and life here is getting expensive

Can't stay here anymore. Besides, there's already oil and money

I need to earn more while I'm young. Afterwards there won't be any

And you know how we will end, getting older, time going by

You have to stay!

What? End up like Carlao? If there it's full of workers,

then they must be starving for women.

And they're, like, full of money, I tell you

The engineer said he wouldn't mind if I go there

Even said it would be nice

He's looking for you

Heard you're leaving, is it true?

It's true.

Why don't you stay with me?

I earn more over there.

And if I pay you more?

No, I won't stay. It's much better there.

Goodbye, Carlão. If you need me you know where to find me

The world is going to end! Only I will stay alive and I'll be King Sebastian!

Some charity for the king.

Mariana! Give him some bread! And coffee.

The engineer managed to find a place for me.

I will take care of the pharmacy.

The engineer told me that he can possibly arrange something for you

A little later

I think you leave this place here

They can't hire the whole world at once.

Oil is complicated,

You need to have a specialized working force.

I was specialized

When I was in São Paulo the machine ate my arm.

I know what you mean

Everything's going to change.

There won't be anyone around here to crop,

The one's working in agriculture don't want to know about it.

Off course, the only way to survive is by learning new techniques.

If there's the tractor why insist in the hoe?

Is it true that the city over there is almost ready?

Off course! It's prefabricated, just need to assemble. Today they were finishing the church tower

Calixto!

Father Inocencio needs to speak to you urgently! Wants to speak with the other ones too

Only women are not allowed.

Did he say what he wants?

Seems like he's leaving, to become the priest in the oil field.

The world is going to end! Only I will stay alive! And I'll be King Sebastian!

It's going to end badly.

Cartola, there's very few people here to make decisions. Wait.

Sorry, I'm leaving.

He's right about leaving. Those who can also should.

A city without a priest ain't good to live in.

Yesterday morning was António, the baker, the left. Closed the bakery.

Zeca, the tailor, was the first. This land is cursed.

These montains surrounding everything, dominating everthing.

It's the end of the line. Now it's Father Inocencio.

And the people stays quiet like lambs.

I think we should talk with the priest to know for sure

If you want I can go, but don't know if there's any point in it

What do you think, Calixto?

Since he called us, we should go.

Mariana! Take care of the bar, I'm going to the priest's house.

I'll destroy you! Don't be affraid!

I have my mirror that captures souls

And my silver beads rosary

I'm Chico of souls

Where I pass I leave a trail

Already rescued many towns and cities of ghastly ghosts

And I'll rescue this one too!

My eyes are already accustomed to morning and betrayals of the condemned

And in my hear there's no place for fear

I came here knowing that the patron saint ia althoughwas leaving

And I came prepared.

My powers have the strength of the sword of St. Michael, the archangel.

And I have in my hands the fire of divine Holy Spirit

I act in the name of God

And no evil forces will bend me.

You've all been warned!

It's the devil!

It's the devil!

Who's arriving there, I, the knight it's me, the gate slammed, the knight it's me

Who's arriving there, I, the knight it's me, the long road in darkness, the knight it's me

Who's arriving there, I, the knight it's me, the afternoon has darkened in the path of God, the knight it's me

Any good "cachacinha" from this village?

From here, none.

It's a pity. Alcohol and game always facilitate things.

But we have one from near by.

Let's drink it, then.

Are you coming from far away?

For me the distances are always short.

If I may...

Few souls here...Was it the oil? They're working out there.

And this ones?

Are borrowed to the service.

And the blind man outside, sings well?

Cartola!

The lad wants to hear you sing.

Was expecting him to ask me.

A laid down "lampeão"

Who died in a trench, in a certain time past

Now, in the "sertão", walketh doing vision, running evil haunting

It was he who brought the news, which saw Lampeão reach.

Hell, that day, was about to turn upside down,

The market burned, died temptation died burned, it hurts just to tell

Candinha's mother died, Father of Forrobodo,

Parafuso's grandson's arrived, a dog named Cótó

Word flew, and the young girl hair burned.

Enough! Enough! Your rhyme is quite reasonable, but your approach to the problems is primary!

Let's see if you good at guessing. Five hundred dead black rails, peel after being killed,

Six hundred cow tongues, most of them salty, sold at three cents each, how much is the total?

I'll give an answer when you answer me.

Four hundred radishes how many leafs can it have?

A Portuguese with a black woman what can he do?

Come forth yellow blind, color of leather and bacon, a blind of your brand ain't worth a coffee

Where shall I put the feet?

Here is a tune that is not pleasing me

Was he angry? The blind man is good at rhymes but it is very suspicious

Will we take long here in the village?

I don't think so, in a while I have to work

Are you, by any chance, the oil engineer?

No. I found that the saint was leaving and made a promise to come see her before leaving the church. A very old promise.

But if I stay here a bit longer you will earn a lot with it.

I, seven league road

Seven nights awaken

Seven leagues of sea

I, seven sambas

seven inches towars death

seven wet deaths

I, seven lost life

Seven rift without fight

In this plantation

I, I came to call my people

Bring it all over again

We'll end everything.

who comes there, I, who comes there, I.

the cancel hit, dawn broke, the knight am I.

I am the knight.

The horse! It disappeared! It's the devil! It's the devil!

Scared, Cartola?

Only the one who stinks gets scared!

Shut up you evil blind! Blinds don't play here! When the blind opens the mouths it´s just pure lies!

and blind. The more you lie, the more you promise.

First tell me where you came from and which perfume is that that reeks from your body. See that the well-educated man measures his way from you.

There are three things in the world that I admire,

The blind walking with no guide, being made with arrogance,

Wanting to see the world with the eyes of reason.

From the smell I can judge! Go away tempting one! Don't want anything with you! I only deliever myself to the redemptor. I am the son of Adam and of the Creator

What do you fear, Cartola? That I may steal your soul? What's the worth of the sould of a poor blind lost in despair?

the helplessness of you touched me! you are so known hat, walks! go! Search the path with only your wisdom

That's what you are, blind being a beast! Where is your God that doesn't come to rescue you?

It's my turn to rule

The day has arrived

For me to be adored! Rise! And recognize my kingdom!

It's written: do not love but to thy God

And has your God done to you? Made you blind, blind for life.

But gave me eyes for other visions.

But I will give the knowledge of the world,

And also of the divine, made from the same superior matter.

I, still angel, will give you eyes.

What will be my eyes worth for if I can´t see the beauty that I always waited for?

Holy trinity

Our lady

Our fragility

We confess, that when fear holds us, and hope fades

What's left of whom doesn't have, Fire Sword or Wings

Are prayers of Amen, or lock inside the house

Maybe singing

Life will be quiet again, Calming the belief that fear creates in the soul

Our insane memory, the memory of the past

Fire of the Holy Wrath spread through the earth

What's left for us to do, lost in the storm

Continuing to suffer, to achieve eternity

The lost souls, of that brief encounter

Pray the singing in silence, begging for your mercy

Afterall, the Priest can't see souls

Very few are born here, almost no one to baptize, and very few die

But that is not enough for you to transfer the Church!

I've already got permission to change.

Besides, Leva-e-Traz was never really a parish.

I lived here for reasons of health

but now, in Vila Nova, there are hundreds of workers requiring religious guidance.

But they can fetch a priest in the city!

The problem is that we have few priests...

Vocations are missing. But you won't have any problems. It's just leagues away.

When you need me I'll be there

I understood father, you´re right. The only thing that's left is to beg for some protection to continue living

By the way, contact Ms. Mariana. I will need her services.

Some paper flowers for the frameworks.

Frameworks for what? Will the priest do procession?

No. The saint is also going.

The world is going to end! Only I will be alive! I will be King Sebastian!

the River are full of mullet.

Strange, where is the fish?

Strange thing will happen.

What was it, Carlão?

It's time to pray for the souls

I don´t know. I was lowered, trying to catch a goldfish, when took a kick. Let's go.

Let's go right away, for heaven's sake

Insane sons of sorrow, have mercy on us

Made of many weaknesses,

For life tortured, slaves without reason

By the rich dominated in slavery,

in the afliction of the moment, desperate and alone,

our sad laments, have mercy on us.

Most Holy Virgin

Virgin before childbirth.

Virgin at childbirth.

Virgin after childbirth.

such was the work of the Holy Spirit

that generated in thy womb Immaculate

Jesus Christ, our saviour

Help us give Our Lady,

the one that the humble now begs,

and let the pain be eased.

Is it hard?

I don't understanding anything. Started yesterday. When we returned the girl's belly began to swell up like that.

And the girl was pure?

This is what I do not understand. The belly appeared yesterday and yesterday it grew.

She needs to rest for a while now.

I need two men to hold it.

Then I'll go with Cartola, as he's blind.

Since you don't have husband, put your father's hat.

Blow in the bottle.

Holy Trinity.

Jesus!

As you asked, I came running to warn you. A calf was born.

How is the calf?

Has a folk-like face. Was just born. Gave a shout-out that looked like a gurgle and began running through the field.

And the cow was crossed?

No, it wasn't, it was still small.

Calixto, lunch is served.

Walking, Juca, and let's go have lunch.

Sit down, Juca.

I was worried about your request

but after the story of the toad, I understood everything.

Another weird thing is the gate of the sheepfold.

All the time I find the calves mixed with dairy cows.

All the time I'm closing it and all the time I find it open again. I can't understand...

I'll see who's the funny one.

Nobody.

I swear it seems the laughter of a calf.

Come, Calixto.

Good...Looks like a lost animal

Shut up, woman!

I'm scared, I want to go away, I can't stay here any longer.

Blood of Christ in my whole body, that way you'll lead the lost shepperds

and take the sheep to his flock, so that I'll protect myself to, Lord

Lamb of God, have mercy

Washes our evils, with your kindness

The blood on the cross purifies the body

Drop by drop and nothing bad will happen

whom who believes in Christ,

as he was imprisoned and struggled and on the third day rose.

My flogging will give me salvation.

Deliver me from evil, fear, cowardice, of souls without charity, tormented day and night.

Here death found his ways of light

The sky reached the divine feet of jesus

We have always been good Christians.

Father Inocêncio, we have always trusted you,

and now you fail, just now.

When strange events are happening in town.

You can't leave everything behind just because you're leaving.

These people, all of the time seeing hauntings.

But you have already been in Sao Paulo.

You have the courage to come to me and talk about the headless mule?!

-But I saw it, Father! -You saw nothing!

-That's your impression! -And when I was kicked to the river? Was that also an impression?

Gentlemen, apologize me, but I still have a lot to fix.

Alright.

Can't we do anything?

We must discover a protection.

Urgent is to get a soul ripper.

The world is going to end! Only I will be alive! And I'll will be King Sebastian.

Where's the cemetery?

Those who here kept, tired of their sad life

a song I was tought

says a "A" Hail Mary, says a "B" good and beauty

says "C" I sing joy, says a "D" God is great,

Says a "E" the time is now, says "F" fragile terror,

Says a "G" keep away, says a "H" let there be love,

says "I" I'll go singing, says a "J" have been saved,

Says a "L" praise worship, says an "M" my Christ the King,

Says a "N" not lack light, says a "O" where I am,

Says a "P" because it was Jesus, says a "Q" who saved me,

Says a "R" relightning, says a "S" honestly,

Says a "T" has a reach, says "U" one God only,

Says a "V" will be my eyes, says "Z" ensure the God.

Virgin Mary, mother of God, immaculate, turn and stir the play, for these are the people to save.

the Virgin of this poor afflicted people, who only prays for the blessed, also wants heaven.

The world is going to end.

Everyone who touches your adornment will be excomungated,

Will get fire in hell.

No need for scriptures.

If God is love it's because he also knows how to punish.

-He will condemn your soul forever ... -You are taken by the devil. At least look to Our Lady, who is the mother of God.

The one who revolts against the will of the Lord, will be condemned to the furnaces of hell.

The blood of the innocents will wet the Earth and legions of angels will rise, carrying the crown that they will place in my head.

Saint Michael will give me the sword of fire and I will be King Sebastian.

The one who come with me into the wilderness, each with a can of gold in hand for King Sebastian.

Need to talk to you! At least once, listen to me!

Stop! Come back!

Approach!

For many centuries I tried to find a way to speak to you all and I couldn't.

Now it's pointless. You´re doomed and will obey me.

Now I'm the King,

and you, the leaders, may kiss my feet.

Now you will know the whole truth. It doesn't please me to someone's master.

What's purpose of having you here, if you do not love me?

I want love! I'm tired of my solitude! I'm unhappy! Every time I came by you threw me holy water I was forced to run away.

But now you will have to help me. We can turn this city into a real paradise.

What guarantees do you give us?

All the garanties of my previous contracts.

And more! I can give you glory, beauty, success, fortune. I can do miracles, I can give an arm to you, Calixto.

I can bring light to your eyes, Cartola.

May light return to your eyes and shall not harm the body. Opens the eyes, Cartola!

I'm seeing!

Miracle! Miracle!Miracle!

What else do you have to offer?

I'll teach how to win the lottery, how to trace the card-deck, how to attract people. I'll teach how to heal diseases and every kind of magic.

The magic, we can use our magical knowledge to develop our city, raise our agriculture, create new markets, a new era will arise. I promise!

Poverty is going to end.

Peace on Earth!

Taming nature

Gloria! Gloria! Hallelujah!

I see fields plows, where before it was wood. I see fields sown, sprouting bread.

Gloria! Hallelujah!

From that day on nobody suffered alone,

And Leva-e-Traz suddenly created a new path.

The blind sees today with no spotting scope

The bicycle is for the one-legged.

The deaf plays by ear.

The dumb sings at the fair

Those who give birth do not need operation.

Giving birth without a midwife, as children arrive by plane.

The houses made of bread with curd roofs

When I had hulls it was much better.

Come in.

Accommodate yourself.

My grandfather! It's the most helpful of the family.

He's now fulfilling a difficult mission.

Make the Pope leave the cassock and turn into a film artist.

We decided to claim an improvement of Carlão.

A man of that size is outrageous

When I was in the circus I managed it. But now ... isn't it?

It's reasonable! But how do you want to be?

I wanted to be a normal man, anyway, but normal.

Then, let's see the model.

Liked it?

Cool, it's a taller me.

According to your will.

I'm feeling another.

Well, solved this issue, we have another that is far more important.

Any problem?

It's the same query that we made you. Everyday more people arrive at our village and we must take advantage of all this.

Those men in Brasília continue insisting!

But I haven't decided whether I agree or not. I need time.

But you must be up 'til Sunday. Next week is the national meeting.

Well, alright, alright. I'll give a reply on time.

If men tire me, you annoy me

It will be terrible. Will change the whole history of mankind

and my family what will they think of me...

God, please be sure to hear me! We have been enemies in a long time,

but please help me! We can make a deal,

If not by the treaties of Geneve, at least within the spirit of the domenic council.

Streets of honeycombs of Italian bees,

Pastel driveways full of American grape,

Life there, my dear, reached 90 years,

Although it's not uncommon to live 'til 180.

Disease doesn't exist there nor medicine.

When someone gives up, wants to die, celebrates.

And after your death you will be able to visit as the Russians and Americans

Someplace in space.

All the way is guaranteed or you get your money back.

That eternal fire busines is baloney.

That has been overcome. Just pay an entry, some benefits, and you may live in a nice infernal neighborhood.

It's difficult.

Garage, swimming pool, playground, in a landscaped campus center.

A one-legged person, gives an entry, and then, at that point, begins to appear the first signs of life.

The following features appear. The ankle, chest, toes, with chigger, burns, tight shoe, etc, garanteed.

-Arrived? -He's waiting in the Church

Let the whole world! Let's everybody!

Order and respect.

I learned in the confessional that having someone paying, if the priest is not present, it is obligation of any baptized christian to decide.

So,

I baptize you.

Named António Bispo dos Anjos (Anthony Bishop of the Angels).

We are at this moment being witnesses of a historic moment of utmost national importance

with great pride on these occasion I present the gentleman as our candidate.

I would like to take time and present Cartola to the Senate of the Republic

and I also take this great opportunity to introduce our great friend Calixto, candidate to federal deputy.

Thank you very much, excellence! Thank you, Senator!

My fellow countrymen, in this solemn moment that the country requests my services, I

with huge personal sacrifices

I consider as an obligation, as a duty

I accept my application to the presidency of this country as a natural inspiration of the highest national situations, with the certainty of being able to help the poor

in the highest national courts exercise

My platform will resume a development policy,

within the spirit of Western democracy and Christianity.

All I promise to those who are listening is to fight next to my companions from beyond,

that the people does not oblige to suffering of eternity.

Very well!

With the collaboration of all, we will bring this country to the glories of his historical destiny of the concert of Nations.

The first act of my Government will enact

the recess of death and work. No one will need to work anymore and everyone will be eternal.

Lord, we arrived now.

We made a big trip to get up here, without eating, me and the boy.

It will never lack food on the table of the hungry.

Father, this food is a lie! It's all a lie, father!
