La vie de Heitor Villa-Lobos, le plus génial des compositeurs classiques brésiliens. Petit, il connaît la violence de son père et la tristesse de sa mère. Ses décéptions amoureuses avec Lucilla, sa première femme, le font souffrir, tout comme le fait de ne pas avoir d'enfants. De même, sa musique n'est pas comprise par la société à laquelle il appartient. En dépit des difficultés, Villa-Lobos poursuit son destin de compositeur et la musique transcende sa réalité.

Quilombo dos Palmares was a real-life democratic society, created in Brazil in the 17th century. This incredibly elaborate (and surprisingly little-known) film traces the origins of Quilombo, which began as a community of freed slaves. The colony becomes a safe harbor for other outcasts of the world, including Indians and Jews. Ganga Zumba (Toni Tornado) becomes president of Quilombo, the first freely elected leader in the Western Hemisphere. Naturally, the ruling Portuguese want to subjugate Zumba and his followers, but the Quilombians are ready for their would-be oppressors. The end of this Brave New World is not pleasant, but the followers of Zumba and his ideals take to the hills, where they honor his memory to this day. Writer/director Carlos Diegues takes every available opportunity to compare the rise and fall of Quilombo with the state of affairs in modern-day Brazil.
