Dizi10.0BelgeselDirected by Isa Grinspum Ferraz, the series O Povo Brasileiro proposes a deep dive into the history of Brazil to talk about historical, social and cultural formations that constitute the identities of the Brazilian people. The production approaches from aspects of the native peoples to the formation of Brazil as a national unit, in a recreation of the literary narrative of the homonymous work written by the anthropologist Darcy Ribeiro.
