Good Afternoon, Father Jubiaba!

Axe, my children.

Thank you, Mother Oxum.

Who ever gets wet, turns into a woman!

Baldo! Baldo!

Now it doesn't count!

He turned into a woman! He did! He did!

Come for supper, you little brat.

Did you forget what time it is? You forgot the
time!

You cannot be sick.

You're the little man of the house.
You need to change that shirt.

l won't go,

l won't go!

Whoever wants to go, go!

What happened, aunt?
ls it a headache?

Who are you?

Do you want to steal my pudding?

l won't go. l won't go.

Be quiet.

Father Jubiaba! Father Jubiaba!

What happened Baldo?

Speak boy!

Aunt Luisa is all worked up again!

Let's go there.

l won't go... l won't go...

Poor woman, it's from carrying that hot tray on
her head all day.

No it isn't, it's something bad that's come over
her.

l won't go... l won't go...

l won't go...

Let's go home and eat. You haven't eaten
anything today.

This is for you to be strong and brave.

l like you.

When you grow up and become a man, come
here again.

Look how big is the land, you see.

All this is part of the house.

They are very rich,
but they are very good people.

You'll like it.

Look how pretty the house is!

You can come in.

Come. They're here.

Sit down Mrs. Augusta.

l'm just fine Mrs. Maria.
Look, l brought the laces.

Did you have lunch?

Ah! We have lunch in the kitchen.
Don't worry about us.

Amélia, dessert!

Hum... what's this?

lt's for the little girl if you don't mind.

Yes.

Magistrate, l brought the boy

Ah! lt's him.

Come here.
What's your name?

Antönio Balduino...

Antönio Balduino. Hum...

it is pretty big.
From now on, l'll call you Baldo.

That's it. Go and have lunch, go.

And will Mrs. Maria take this boy?

Alright, l have to go.

Amélia, you'll take care of the boy.

Believe me, he is a good little black boy.

lt was very sad. She only stopped crying

and laughing when she died at the hospital.

She took that bad thing with her.

Come on! Stop whining.
And eat everything.

Come on! Stop whining.
And eat everything.

And thank God you have people to care for you.

Don't be sad. l'll come to
visit you whenever l can.

Let's play in the yard.

Alright, l'm leaving now, Mrs. Amélia.
Thanks for the food.

Thank the Magistrate.

Thank him for me. See you next time.

This one. Yes...

No... Yes...

That one over there. There.

This is no good. A negro inside the house.

Help me get down.

Hey nigger! Bring me the groceries right now.

l'm coming, you old witch.

Come here! Come here!

And don't you open your mouth!

Go to hell, old witch!

You'll pay for that!

Yes?

lt's Mrs. Maria's supper.

Yes.

Are you leaving, your Excellency?

What a question.

But you are leaving without talking to Baldo.

Any day he's going to kill all in this house. l am
sure he will.

Negro is a bad race, they are only fit to be
slaves.

You know, you gave me an idea.

l'll put an end to the arguing in the house right
now.

Baldo, come here.

Do you know how to read?

Yes Sir.

And how to count as well?

For a long time.

Since you can read and count,
you don't need to go to school.

Tomorrow, you'll start working with me.

You have a lot of things
to learn down at the store.

And you won't be hanging around all day in the
house.

The only people who are recognized
in this house are the lazy and the bums.

You've just won a prize,
you little brat. Are you happy?

Father, can l go to the theater?

lt's lady session today.

Ah! Baldo will go with you.

You'll go, won't you Baldo?

Easy. Easy. Here you go.

Hurry up!

l don't want to miss the beginning of the movie.

lt's always the same story.
Who does all the job, gets nothing.

Do you really think he should have gone?

He couldn't stay.

lt was his destiny.

Father Jubiaba always said that a man must
follow his destiny.

Shit!

What's the matter?

Mind your own business.

Do you think l didn't see you staring at Mrs.
Lindinalva's legs?

Always staring at her legs, you dirty nigger boy,
no shame,

you devil!

Always spying on her through the keyhole when
she's taking a bath,

when she's dressing.

You're always following her.

What's going on here?

This little nigger was staring at Mrs. Lindinalva's
legs.

He's always running after her like a dog.

ls that true Baldo?...

So, your dirty boy.

l treat you like a son and this is how you pay me
back.

Come here!

Come here you dirty nigger,

you bastard!

Please Ma'am, can you spare change?

My mother has water in her lungs.

Leave it to me, l'll take it.

Thank you.

Hey lady, can you spare some change?

Some money Mister, please.

Get a job, boy!

You have to ask! Ask!

lt's twelve thousands réis.

Divided by fifteen, it's eight hundreds réis a
piece.

For them too?

They did work, didn't they?

Then they'll get an equal share.

Lady, some change, please.

Hey lady! Look, l've got seven blind brothers,
help me, please.

Fat Boy!

What's the matter, Baldo?

Let's get out of here!

What happened Baldo?

Nothing, l know these people.

Baldo, remember that time on the beach?

Damn white men. Sons of bitches!

Give me some money!

Get out of my way nigger!

Give me some money.
Give me some money.

Come on, give me your money!

l'll call the police. Thief! Thief

Thief! Thief!

That's him, officer. He is the leader.

My army is the greatest in the world.
You'll be arrested and hung!

Never!

Hey Blackie! Go get me some
stuff from the market.

l'm no slave. l'd rather die.

Wake up you bums.

To the street, little thieves.

To the street, if you come back
here, it'll arrest you for good.

Watch out, l mean it.

Father! Father Jubiaba!
Father Jubiaba!

Father!

What happened my son!

lt's her, isn't she?

Yes. She's the soldier's fiancée.

Did you see how she received Oxala?

What l know is she's Osorio's fiancée.
Soldier of the 1 9th battalion.

My father Jubiaba told me that you are...

You're Baldo, aren't you?

l'll wait for the answer tomorrow, at the service
for St. Anthony.

Dos Reis, come here.

Did you know about that?

What is it mum?

lf you think that l raised you

to marry a soldier, you are completely mistaken.

Hoping that your lncellency. . . lNCELLENC Y!

Find in my favor, etc., etc. and so on,

signed Osorio, Soldier of the 1 9th battalion.

You knew, didn't you?

About what mother?

That this little soldier was coming to propose to
you?

No. l swear l didn't.

What about you? Do you want to marry him?

No mother. Not any more.

Alright, come to bed, then.

Your blessing, mother.

God bless you my daughter. Go.

You... l think Osorio is coming...

l had enough reasons to think so.
l just didn't want to believe it.

Go away soldier

l'll cut your balls off nigger!

Whose side are you on?

On the soldier's, for the first time.

Well, how much are we going to bet?

Ten thousands réis, Twenty thousands réis...

Twenty five.

Did you see that, did you?

Shit!

The police! Tomorrow at the ''Lanterna dos
Afogados''.

My name is Luigi.

Go there. He went that way, that way.

Luigi!

Dos Reis, is that you?

lt's me mum. Good night

God bless you.

Here you are, finally! Come, come. . .

What a punch! What a punch!

Thank God you helped me
run away from those soldiers.

Do you want some beer?

What about you? Do you want some?

No?

Have you ever boxed?

Only capoeira.

l'll make you a champion.

How?

lf you want to. lf you're willing to.

l'm a boxing manager, and l made a lot of
fighters,

who have careers all over the world.

But l've never ever found a fighter with a right
hook like yours.

So, are you in? l can take you to Rio,

to the United States

l'm in!

ln this corner: Baldo, the black!

And in this corner: Gentil, the champion
of all weights of the glorious armada.

Ladies and Gentlemen, the arbitration
committee announces the following:

the fight ends with Gentil winning.

But Gentil and his handlers decided
to give a rematch to Baldo, the negro.

But Gentil and his handlers decided
to give a rematch to Baldo, the negro.

l need to speak to you in private.

My name is Xavier. l'm the German's manager.

Want some beer?

Here's what's happening,
the German can't lose this fight.

He can't?

For one reason. He costs me a fortune.

Now imagine if he fights you and loses,

he'll never be able to fight again. Do you agree?

Yes...

Now if he wins. He will fight the others
and pay all the expenses.

So what?

l'll give you 1 00 thousands réis to lose this fight.

We can get you a rematch later and all. . .

Did you talk to Luigi?

Ah! Luigi is a wimp.
And he doesn't need to know.

lt will be our secret.

Have you got the money?

You'll get it after the fight.

Then, l'm not in. lf you want
to give it to me, do it now.

And what if you don't lose?

And what if l lose and get hurt
and you don't pay me?

Take it easy! Take it easy!
There's no need to argue.

l believe you.

You said a hundred.

l'll give you the other half after the fight.

lf you want it, the time is now.

Satisfied?

Aren't you going to have a beer?

No, thank you very much.

l'm in a hurry and the party is all yours.

Then get up.

What's this? Don't touch me.
My money. You thief! Thief!

He wanted to buy me.

He gave me one hundred thousand réis to lose
the fight against that scrawny German

That's for him to learn not to try to buy a man.

Now, let's drink with his money.

Champion Ariano of Bahia.

Undefeated fighter says that Baldo the Black
won't last one round.

Damn white men. Sons of bitches!

Sons of bitches!

Baldo, forget that woman. Forget that woman.

You're the champion of Bahia, Baldo.

Baldo! Look at me Baldo. Let's go.

Baldo, You're a traitor! Your hands are dirty!

Fucking white men! Sons of bitches!

Who is he arguing with?

With Bahia. l think, it's with Bahia.

Good evening, Mr. Gustavo.

Good evening, Amélia.

Will you wait for the Magistrate or can l serve?

The father, did he leave?

He just left. l think he will be late.

Be nice Amélia. Bring supper, l'm hungry.

Think, you've got to think.

lf you don't take care of yourselves, don't
expect anyone to take care of you.

Least of all a man!

l want you ready, dressed,
bathed, perfumedin one hour.

Because there can be
no shame for Zaira's House.

Magistrate!

My dear friend.

Forgive me, l think l've arrived a bit early.

Forget it Ferreira, you're
always welcome in my house.

Luckily you arrived earlier.
We need to talk... Business...

Don't worry about my debt,

l mortgaged my house this morning.

l've got money, l can pay
for it, and we'll drink champagne.

l'm not dressed to drink champagne yet.

Come in.

Good evening.

Hum...

And now, sit down here.

Yes. Sit down...

That's right.

... l got a surprise for you. Look.

No. l don't want it. lt's too expensive.

No. What's this?

Nothing is too expensive for you.
Come on, l beg you, sit down.

Yes, sit down.

My dear,

very well.

Just look at it and tell me only if you like it.

Do you like it?

How much did it cost?

More than you can imagine.

No, l don't want it, l'm afraid.

Excuse me, if you don't need me
any more, l'm going to bed.

Good night, Amélia.

Good night, Sir.

My dear, you'd better go to sleep.

Good night my dear.

l'll wait for the Magistrate.

To sell the house, the papers have
to be signed by tomorrow morning.

With the money, maybe
he can pay all his debts.

Do you know if he's coming back?

l don't know, Sir.

l'll wait anyway.

As you wish.

There goes the last of Ferreira's properties .

One moment. Let me put it on,
and champagne for everyone.

ls that you Baldo?

The sale of the house was enough
to pay all the creditors.

The balance is deposited
in your account at the Savings Bank.

With your permission, l'd like
to give you some advice.

Yes, sure, later, later. Maybe tomorrow.
Now l need to go, l need to go.

And don't wait for me for supper tonight.

Well darling, l need to go too.

Let's go to the movies tonight?

See you.

Ferreira...

l want to see Tete.

Why do you want to see her?

Do you think it's going to change anything?

l have money. l need to see her,
do you understand?

l'll call her.

Ferreira! Come here and have
some wine with your friends.

To Cachoeira. l have a friend there,
and we're starting a business together.

l want you to go with me.

Are you coming?

Are you coming with me?

He's an old friend of mine, very rich,
the business will work.

We can leave tonight if you want...
l have some money...

l have some money,

wait, l'll show you.

lt's not enough.

Your money is not enough.

l don't want to go anywhere with you, old man.

Help! Help, Help us.

He's dead.

Help! Help!

Let's get out of here. Let's get out of
here now, l don't want anyone here.

lf you need anything.

What about your fiancé? ls he traveling?

My regrets.

Good bye.

lf you need... Good bye.

lf you need... Good bye.

My dear, don't be ridiculous. Come on in.

l don't know how to begin.

l can't hide what l'm feeling.

You father compromised my carrier.

Did you see the scandal?

Do you want the truth?

Our wedding is not possible anymore.

l'm sorry. That's it.

Look, take it, l'll send more later,
with the Magistrate's documents.

You're pregnant.

lf you don't pray after 3 Fridays, it will burst

and you will die .
That's how Maroca's boy died.

l don't know how we can
work without ant women around.

These two is all we've got.

As if that. . . that. . .
that faggot were a man.

But l'm telling you. Hurry up,
mind your own business, creep!

And there's also Mrs. Laura's daughter.

Someday l'll take hold of her,
whether she wants it or not.

Another headless girl.

Hey Arminda, stop working,

leave that basket and come with me.

Mrs. Laura passed away.

Zequinha took the girl with him

l wish it was me.

Hail Mary, Full of Grace, The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among women,

and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners now,

and at the hour of death. Amen.

Our Father, Who art in heaven, Hallowed by
Thy Name.

Thy Kingdom come. Thy Will be done,

on earth as it is in Heaven.

Damn nigger, has no respect
even for the dead.

But she's just a girl.
Wait here, you son of a bitch!

What do you want, nigger?

Come my dear, the clients are waiting for you.

Look for the oldest, they're richer.
Ask for a lot of champagne.

A lot of champagne.

Come.

My friends! Let me introduce
you my niece! Ninon!

Let's dance, Mrs. Ferreira?

What would you like to drink?

Champagne.

Baldo!

Luigi!

How nice! Turn around.

Turn around. Brilliant!

Turn around. Brilliant!

But what are you doing here Luigi?

Come, come. l need you.

My old friend, but l never was a circus
performer.

Five contos for the winner,
but there will be none.

But the people want to see a fight
or they will be mad!

Who told that there wouldn't be a fight?
We can buy some candidates.

Cachaça, cachaça from Santo Amaro,
the real one. Come on.

This is for you and this for me.

Cheers.

lt's not worth it. You're drunk already?!

Fifi, you'll be paid tomorrow.

You've been saying that for two months.
Tomorrow, tomorrow.

Well, l won't be here tomorrow.

All you do is complain about money.

And isn't art worth anything?

Back in my time, we worked for
the sake of art, for the applause.

l can't eat applause.

What about the glory?

Bread isn't all men need.

Christ said so!
What did Christ said anyway?

Christ was no trapeze artist,
and tomorrow, l'm not working.

ln my time, a trapeze artist was a trapeze artist.

Wait a minute Baldo.

Here it is, l'll show you the greatest trapeze
artist in the world.

Risoleta.

What a woman, huh?

She was my girl.

lt was a mortal jump.

Nothing like that had ever happened before.

The trapeze came short.

She didn't reach my hands.

We've never had any problems before.

Can you imagine she had a lover?

They told me so,

they even showed me his letters.

All lies.

lt was impossible, with the life she lead.

She wasn't the kind of woman who had lovers

She liked staying home, we were very happy.

Ladies and gentlemen!
l give you the giant black man,

Baldo!

The fight ends when one
of the fighters dies or quits.

lt's all right, for starters.

l was waiting for you.

Gee! Who'd tell?

Where are you going?

Nowhere. l was thinking of getting some fresh
air.

So was l.

Beautiful night.

lt is. So many stars!

When a brave negro dies, he becomes a star in
the sky.

l wish l could work on a real big stage.

Like the ones in Rio de Janeiro.

l do like a good maxixe.

l wanted to work in a theater, but my father
didn't let me.

He wanted me to marry a Portuguese
salesman.

After that there was Emanuel,

but my dad decided that he was a hopeless
bum, with nowhere to go. Hum!

Worst of all, he was
a hopeless bum, a sleazy guy like you

And then there was a series of misfortunes,

the old man got angry
and kicked me out of the house.

Me too. l was thrown out too.

A clown led me to this life.

We were dating seriously, and then we moved
in together.

And then one day a dancer didn't show up, a
Spanish girl, so l replaced her

But l got mad at the clown too, so l went to
another circus,

and here l am.

You are like the moon.

Me? Why?

You seem to be close, but you're not.

But l'm so close to you.

Ten bucks, ten bucks!
lt's a lot of money.

Always, always money.

You only think about money.

What about art, don't you think about art?

What about art, don't you think about art?

Luigi! Today, he's the one who won't work.

Watchout Risoleta, let's do it again.

Calm down, Luigi.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

You giant queer!

And now, the lnternational Gran Circus

gives you the most daring trapeze act ever, with
Fifi,

world record holder!

She's going to die. She's going to fall.

Wait for me Risoleta.

Don't worry, my daughter.

You'll be alright.

The fever has passed.

Thank Goodness.

Mother, are you sad?

No, l'm not sad,

No, l'm not sad, l'm just worried about you,
that's all.

He needs shoes.

l brought some money,

it is not much.

l need to go now.

Solidarity, fellow companions, is all we're asking
for.

lf they don't raise our wages, we'll all starve to
death.

Our wives and our children are already
ashamed of us.

My answer, our answer is strike.

Our wives and children can't go on like this.

So this is what we have to do:
strike! That's our move!

And starting today, and tomorrow,
there at the labor union, we...

Hey, are you Henrique?

Balduino. You, my boy! Where were you ? lt's
been a while!

lt has, l was traveling. l'm back.

That's nice! l'm happy for you.

We're in the middle of a
fight here, it's quite a battle.

Companion, here comes the police.

lf you need a job Baldo,
look for us down at the docks.

Baldo!

The General Meeting is
after tomorrow, did you know?

Don't worry, Baldo is a friend of ours.

So, here is the deal...

lt was a disaster. The circus blowed over,
everything blowed over!

l left that woman.

lt's pretty sad around here.

People are starving.

l think they'll go on a strike.

Who?

Everyone.

Bricklayers, barbers, stevedores, everyone.

Have you been to Father Jubiaba's?

l'm thinking of going there tomorrow.

Look, this Portuguese woman comes everyday
to the bar looking for you.

She said that her name is Amélia. She really
needs to speak with you.

Baldo. Come in.

She's too old for luxurious boarding houses.

The rich men don't go out with her anymore.

She's always drunk,

but she comes here whenever
she has the chance.

Sicker and thinner everyday

But when she's with her son, she's Mrs.
Lindinalva again, a saint.

She likes the boy so much,

he's everything she hast left in her life.

You will help her, won't you?

Where is she now?

l think that she's in ''Baixo'' street.

A cigarette... a cigarette...

for the love of God, give me a cigarette.

What about a beer?
You're buying me a beer, aren't you?

What about a beer?
You're buying me a beer, aren't you?

Father Jubiaba! Father!

Baldo, don't you think it's time you found a job?

Alright, now you can start working.

Are you her mother?

How is she?

She's very sick. The doctor is here.

lt was the mother.

Will she make it?

l don't know...

l did all l could. Now, we have to wait.

l want to see... Gustavinho... and his father.

His father? l don't know where to find Gustavo.

Baldo! Go get Baldo.

lt is him whom l want to see.

My son. Where is my son?

The trolley strike starts today.

l think we should get
involved and stick with them.

We're going to decide that at the General
Meeting of the union.

No one can talk about it.

Baldo! Baldo!

Baldo... l was mean to you.

Nevermind.

Do you forgive me?

Don't say that, don't make me cry

Help Amélia... to raise my son Baldo.

Take care of him.

LlNDlNALVA!

The trolley stopped.
Everything stopped. We want the strike

Silence! Silence! Be quiet! Be quiet!

l don't see, really...
l cannot see any reason to go on a strike.

My people!

You're going to lose your jobs.

Caö! Caö! Cabeci!

l'm a stupid black man.
l don't know any pretty words.

What l know is that there are some men here
whose children are starving,

whose wives are starving.

You don't know anything.

What good is it that black men come to sing,
and to pray to Oxossi,

to Oxossi.

Once, the police closed Oxala's party,

when he was Oxalufa, the old.

And father Jubiaba went to jail with them.

What can a black man do?

Without any black. Where's the light?

There are only stars.

Black is light. Black and
poor white people are all slaves,

but they have everything in their hands, it is just
a question of will, and you're a slave no more.

Let's take a vote.

l'm for the strike!

The people... Baldo!

The rich men dried the eyes of kindness.

But they can dry the eyes
of evil any time they please.
