Lampião, rêves de bandit
Beginning with the decapitation of Lampião, rêves de bandit and his band, the film assembles the pieces of the puzzle surrounding this legendary bandit. We first discover the mystical Sertão, where the supernatural is omnipresent. It was here that various accounts of Lampião’s saga were recorded. But they contradict one another. If he was a hero to some, others saw him as a heartless fiend. Lampião focuses passions and maintains the collective imagination of the inhabitants of the Sertão, most of whom gather for a mass on the site of his beheading.
