Film description
Bye Bye Brazil is the story of a troupe of musicians and performers who travel by truck throughout Brazil, offering entertainment in small towns and other out-of-the-way locales throughout the picturesque hinterland. We follow the adventures of the troupes five characters on the road, as they encounter fellow travelers, adventurers, vagabonds, impoverished peasants, Indian chiefs and hustlers, and discover a Brazil in which the archaic and the modern, misery and abundance, tragedy and beauty, and the past and the future, all coexist.
