Twenty Years Later (1984)
Eduardo Coutinho · 119m · Digital
Sponsored by the Forum for Free Inquiry and Expression.
One of Brazil’s most prolific documentarists, Eduardo Coutinho set out to retell the life and death of farm workers’ leader João Pedro Teixeira only to have the project interrupted by the 1964 coup d’etat. In Twenty Years Later, he returns to his subjects, weaving together footage from the unfinished project with interviews that reveal the resilience of those fighting injustice on Brazilian plantations.
