In an occupied land belonging to a sugarcane processing plant, the Landless Workers Movement fights to press the government into making land reform and settling the families encamped. While conservative forces gain more space than ever in the country, encamped people dream of self-determination.

00:01:41.333 --> 00:01:42.375
PC...
00:01:43.250 --> 00:01:46.333
Can you imagine when they announce
00:01:46.792 --> 00:01:48.583
"the settlement is ready"!
00:01:49.208 --> 00:01:51.500
I'd grab a big share over there...
00:01:52.000 --> 00:01:54.834
I'd like it to be over there,
00:01:55.250 --> 00:01:57.166
on the edge of that bush...
00:01:58.417 --> 00:02:00.000
It would be nice, wouldn't it?
00:02:00.250 --> 00:02:02.458
Can you picture how fancy
I'd look up there?
00:02:04.333 --> 00:02:06.667
By now, it would all be covered
with my crops,
00:02:06.875 --> 00:02:08.625
my cows...
00:02:09.000 --> 00:02:10.458
...but I don't want any pigs!
00:02:10.959 --> 00:02:12.458
You would want that much land?
00:02:13.083 --> 00:02:14.667
You'd be a big landowner, then!
00:02:14.917 --> 00:02:16.000
Not really!
00:02:16.166 --> 00:02:19.125
So much suffering
only to get 40 acres...
00:02:19.333 --> 00:02:22.125
What would I do
with 40 acres?
00:02:22.333 --> 00:02:23.542
Oh, grandma, 40 acres!
00:02:24.750 --> 00:02:27.458
If we can't handle it,
we'll end up starving, you know?
00:02:31.917 --> 00:02:34.542
I want to split this 40-acre area
00:02:34.750 --> 00:02:37.625
so I don't work too hard.
00:02:37.792 --> 00:02:39.500
There's much more to life, right?
00:02:39.750 --> 00:02:41.041
I think about the future.
00:02:45.291 --> 00:02:47.333
Here's one fence
and here's another one.
00:02:47.500 --> 00:02:51.000
And here I wanna plant lots of...
00:02:53.291 --> 00:02:54.959
...fruits, you know?
00:02:56.208 --> 00:02:57.875
Right here at the entrance.
00:02:58.083 --> 00:03:00.375
-P.C., you're stealing my idea!
-No, I'm not!
00:03:00.625 --> 00:03:01.708
Aw, man!
00:03:01.917 --> 00:03:03.667
I wanna plant coconuts from Bahia,
00:03:03.875 --> 00:03:07.000
oranges, lemons...
00:03:07.166 --> 00:03:09.667
Everything at the entrance,
I don't want it there.
00:03:09.875 --> 00:03:11.417
I'll put my orchard here.
00:03:12.500 --> 00:03:15.041
I really hope I get my share
split with yours!
00:03:18.250 --> 00:03:20.333
I'm rooting for us
to be neighbors.
00:03:20.542 --> 00:03:21.625
Yes, by God's will!
00:03:21.834 --> 00:03:22.834
Ain't it?
00:03:23.041 --> 00:03:24.625
It would be great, wouldn't it?
00:03:24.834 --> 00:03:26.917
I will always help you, whenever I can.
00:03:27.125 --> 00:03:29.458
Whenever I'm in trouble,
I'll just scream,
00:03:30.041 --> 00:03:32.542
"Hey, partner, I need you!"
00:03:34.583 --> 00:03:36.917
You, me, and Clara will get together,
00:03:37.125 --> 00:03:39.417
and there we go.
00:03:39.625 --> 00:03:41.333
We can exchange work days, P.C.
00:03:41.542 --> 00:03:43.834
Yes, that's what I want, Grandma,
00:03:44.041 --> 00:03:46.083
to have some partners and take turns.
00:03:46.750 --> 00:03:50.041
Just like it used to be,
we'd harvest rice, beans,
00:03:50.333 --> 00:03:52.375
then you could just say
to your neighbor,
00:03:52.583 --> 00:03:55.000
"I wanna buy a pig,
and don't have any money,
00:03:55.208 --> 00:03:58.125
but I do have two rice sacks,
a bean sack."
00:04:06.125 --> 00:04:07.750
There's a passage here.
00:04:13.041 --> 00:04:14.166
In this case,
00:04:14.875 --> 00:04:18.333
if we receive those 40 acres,
00:04:18.542 --> 00:04:19.750
I wanna split it here...
00:04:20.959 --> 00:04:24.333
15 here... this will be 15 acres.
00:04:24.917 --> 00:04:26.041
So, here we go.
00:04:27.792 --> 00:04:30.083
I'll chase my dream, you know...
00:04:30.291 --> 00:04:31.291
God bless, Grandma.
00:04:31.542 --> 00:04:33.542
...to build my picket,
00:04:33.750 --> 00:04:36.041
I'll use 5 acres to plant roses,
00:04:36.291 --> 00:04:39.291
so I can make rose oil...
00:04:39.500 --> 00:04:41.166
Did you see how expensive it is?
00:04:41.333 --> 00:04:42.959
My friend...
00:04:43.250 --> 00:04:44.959
We'll be so happy,
right, Grandma?
00:04:45.166 --> 00:04:46.917
Dear God,
00:04:47.125 --> 00:04:48.917
make this old lady's arms strong
00:04:49.125 --> 00:04:50.750
'cause I'll work my ass off!
00:04:50.959 --> 00:04:53.125
And Grandma, imagine there are people
00:04:53.291 --> 00:04:55.458
who don't even wanna do
anything in life!
00:04:58.959 --> 00:05:01.291
If I get a place
with access to water,
00:05:01.500 --> 00:05:03.250
guess what I can also build...
00:05:03.959 --> 00:05:04.959
a fish...
00:05:05.250 --> 00:05:06.250
tank!
00:05:06.500 --> 00:05:07.542
Why is that?
00:05:07.750 --> 00:05:08.917
Using pipes,
00:05:09.125 --> 00:05:12.291
I can draw pig manure
into the tank to feed the fish,
00:05:12.542 --> 00:05:13.959
through a pipe system.
00:05:15.166 --> 00:05:16.250
Right?
00:05:16.625 --> 00:05:17.834
Here's the henhouse.
00:05:19.583 --> 00:05:20.583
A henhouse.
00:05:20.917 --> 00:05:22.417
Here's the pigsty.
00:05:26.583 --> 00:05:27.625
Here's the stockyard.
00:05:29.917 --> 00:05:31.291
This is only for cattle,
00:05:31.500 --> 00:05:33.250
cattle,
00:05:34.041 --> 00:05:36.667
cattle too...
00:05:36.875 --> 00:05:39.458
and also here.
00:05:40.583 --> 00:05:42.000
The same here...
00:05:46.291 --> 00:05:48.625
And the fields will be up here,
right, Grandma?
00:05:48.834 --> 00:05:52.000
You're wondering if it's only cattle.
No, there'll be crops too!
00:05:52.208 --> 00:05:54.542
So, I'll plant corn,
gueroba palms, and then...
00:05:54.750 --> 00:05:56.000
...manioc, right?
00:05:56.792 --> 00:05:59.375
I'll plant manioc because it's food,
00:05:59.583 --> 00:06:01.917
I can make flour, powder, I can sell it...
00:06:11.125 --> 00:06:13.583
We have to think this through,
you know?
00:06:15.125 --> 00:06:17.500
I wanna furrow the ground,
00:06:17.708 --> 00:06:19.625
I'll get a tractor to do it.
00:06:19.834 --> 00:06:22.250
There are tractors that work
just like planters.
00:06:22.750 --> 00:06:26.750
Here, I won't plant gueroba palms,
because it dries my soil too much,
00:06:27.000 --> 00:06:28.250
it draws the water out,
00:06:28.458 --> 00:06:29.500
you know that.
00:06:31.250 --> 00:06:35.667
I can plant a little bit,
maybe four or five just to eat.
00:06:36.750 --> 00:06:39.000
But instead of planting gueroba palms,
00:06:39.166 --> 00:06:40.333
I'll plant...
00:06:42.208 --> 00:06:43.333
Eh...
00:06:43.542 --> 00:06:45.583
How's it called?
Hearts of palm!
00:06:46.708 --> 00:06:48.875
But it's the same,
it'll also dry the earth!
00:06:49.083 --> 00:06:51.208
No, I won't plant them here.
00:06:51.417 --> 00:06:53.583
I'll plant them down here,
near the water.
00:06:54.417 --> 00:06:57.542
In eight months, I can cut them
to sell the heart of palm...
00:06:57.750 --> 00:06:58.792
for a good price!
00:06:59.542 --> 00:07:00.625
And I'll plant
00:07:00.834 --> 00:07:02.250
rice,
00:07:02.458 --> 00:07:03.750
beans,
00:07:03.959 --> 00:07:05.625
I'll also have manioc...
00:07:05.834 --> 00:07:06.875
and corn!
00:07:08.250 --> 00:07:11.333
I'll try to produce two crops of corn
00:07:11.500 --> 00:07:13.875
and two crops of beans.
00:07:14.083 --> 00:07:17.125
Rice is not possible,
'cause it doesn't grow twice in a row.
00:07:17.375 --> 00:07:18.583
In the middle of all this
00:07:18.792 --> 00:07:20.959
I'll grow my coffee trees.
00:07:21.917 --> 00:07:23.333
I wanna grow coffee too.
00:07:23.542 --> 00:07:25.542
That's why
I wrote "miscellaneous" here.
00:07:25.792 --> 00:07:27.041
I'll grow coffee
00:07:28.708 --> 00:07:30.250
Coffee is the most important!
00:07:30.417 --> 00:07:34.291
Yes, I'll grow it because
a coffee sack is sold for 150 reais!
00:07:36.250 --> 00:07:39.417
Then I won't need
to buy coffee for myself,
00:07:39.834 --> 00:07:41.917
'cause I'll have my grinder,
my roaster...
00:07:42.125 --> 00:07:44.166
And here I'll have my house,
00:07:44.333 --> 00:07:47.041
I'll build a big porch here...
00:07:47.250 --> 00:07:48.708
This will be surrounded, too.
00:07:48.917 --> 00:07:54.250
...with a wood burning stove
and everything!
00:07:54.458 --> 00:07:57.792
Here, a parking lot for when
my children come visit,
00:07:58.041 --> 00:07:59.500
so they can park their cars.
00:07:59.708 --> 00:08:00.875
Yeah, very chic!
00:08:01.041 --> 00:08:02.834
I'll be this super stylish
old lady!
00:08:05.375 --> 00:08:07.667
And I'll have a good horse
to ride!
00:08:07.875 --> 00:08:10.959
That's great to visit the neighbors,
just take the dirt road!
00:08:11.166 --> 00:08:14.333
If we get our shares here,
I'll go to Santa Helena on horseback!
00:08:14.542 --> 00:08:17.083
I'll go get breakfast at your place,
on horseback!
00:08:17.291 --> 00:08:18.375
You can go!
00:08:18.750 --> 00:08:21.083
And then, my friend,
00:08:21.708 --> 00:08:24.333
Little by little I'll come up
with more stuff,
00:08:26.583 --> 00:08:30.375
I'll do everything
I can think of...
00:08:30.625 --> 00:08:32.041
And I'll be there to help.
00:08:35.417 --> 00:08:36.875
I can't wait to get the land,
00:08:37.083 --> 00:08:38.333
so we can live in peace
00:08:38.542 --> 00:08:39.542
and help the others.
00:08:40.041 --> 00:08:41.834
Free ourselves from being enslaved.
00:08:51.458 --> 00:08:55.417
Me, I don't keep watch here
from midnight to six, no way!
00:08:55.667 --> 00:08:59.041
I've kept watch by myself here,
when it was the other one.
00:09:00.250 --> 00:09:03.083
Totally fine, actually!
00:09:04.500 --> 00:09:07.834
If you think well,
one can be at ease here,
00:09:08.041 --> 00:09:11.542
'cause if anyone climbs the stairs,
we can we feel it!
00:09:11.875 --> 00:09:13.542
The tower will shake, right?
00:09:13.959 --> 00:09:16.500
But it can be dangerous
to stay here by yourself.
00:09:16.708 --> 00:09:18.708
We gotta have a lamp, a lantern.
00:09:18.917 --> 00:09:20.792
Why, it's better in the dark!
00:09:21.000 --> 00:09:23.291
A lamp for what,
so people can see you?
00:09:24.375 --> 00:09:28.583
But if the invader steps into the trap
he'll get caught.
00:09:28.750 --> 00:09:29.792
Yeah, for sure.
00:09:30.000 --> 00:09:33.417
Then we'll set off some fireworks,
and people will come,
00:09:33.625 --> 00:09:34.917
so what's he looking for?
00:09:35.291 --> 00:09:36.583
He'll have to explain.
00:09:36.792 --> 00:09:38.208
Looking for trouble...
00:09:38.667 --> 00:09:40.959
He'll have to explain
what he was looking for.
00:09:41.208 --> 00:09:42.583
How are things over there?
00:09:42.792 --> 00:09:43.834
Yeah...
00:09:44.041 --> 00:09:45.041
Right over there?
00:09:45.542 --> 00:09:48.083
-And near the fence down there?
-There's nothing...
00:09:49.500 --> 00:09:50.959
Everything's clear.
00:09:52.583 --> 00:09:54.000
Our shift is almost over.
00:09:54.291 --> 00:09:56.625
-Thank God.
-Look.
00:09:57.417 --> 00:09:59.041
There's nothing...
00:10:00.250 --> 00:10:03.417
Nothing, but imagine if someone
comes sneaking from out there?
00:10:04.583 --> 00:10:07.000
We can't see someone
sneaking in slowly, Grandma!
00:10:07.500 --> 00:10:09.166
And the cane's not
that tall yet!
00:10:09.375 --> 00:10:11.166
But it's starting to grow,
ain't it?
00:10:11.458 --> 00:10:13.208
Around here it's already tall,
see?
00:10:13.417 --> 00:10:15.375
We'll have
to clean the field, Grandma.
00:10:15.625 --> 00:10:18.208
We'll have to organize it
with the discipline guys.
00:10:18.375 --> 00:10:20.708
We gotta cut it.
We'll have to!
00:10:52.875 --> 00:10:59.500
LANDLESS
00:12:11.250 --> 00:12:15.208
You're here fighting for your rights,
so this place cannot be empty.
00:12:15.750 --> 00:12:19.834
In cases like this,
we can think of some alternatives
00:12:20.041 --> 00:12:23.667
to allow people to participate
in the struggle for land, right?
00:12:24.083 --> 00:12:27.792
I'm part of the mass front collective,
00:12:28.041 --> 00:12:32.417
that does this initial work
with the families,
00:12:32.625 --> 00:12:35.625
of proposing, explaining everything,
answering questions,
00:12:35.834 --> 00:12:38.542
and inviting people
for this life project
00:12:38.750 --> 00:12:41.291
of returning to the countryside.
00:12:43.083 --> 00:12:46.542
We're a social movement
that fights for land,
00:12:46.750 --> 00:12:50.542
but also for social transformation,
and for our rights, see?
00:12:51.542 --> 00:12:53.083
It's a new life project,
00:12:54.750 --> 00:12:56.333
which isn't exactly new.
00:12:56.542 --> 00:12:57.708
Maybe it's new for me,
00:12:57.875 --> 00:13:00.083
because I haven't lived
in the countryside,
00:13:00.250 --> 00:13:03.750
but my grandfather and my family
come from the countryside, right?
00:13:03.917 --> 00:13:05.583
I also come from the countryside.
00:13:05.792 --> 00:13:07.500
Do you know
what an "agregado" is?
00:13:07.708 --> 00:13:10.750
We work there our whole life
but nothing's ours, you know?
00:13:10.959 --> 00:13:13.500
You make a living out of that
but you don't own it.
00:13:13.667 --> 00:13:15.792
-Just to eat.
-That's exactly it.
00:13:16.000 --> 00:13:19.417
It's not the Landless Workers' Movement
that gives land to people,
00:13:19.625 --> 00:13:23.125
what the movement does is
to gather people to fight for land.
00:13:23.333 --> 00:13:24.917
Why did we choose this land?
00:13:25.125 --> 00:13:29.500
This land is owned by prominent people,
so we get into the political world.
00:13:29.708 --> 00:13:31.458
How's that?
00:13:31.667 --> 00:13:34.834
The landowner is influential,
so it'll draw attention.
00:13:35.208 --> 00:13:38.125
It won't be a hidden occupation.
00:13:39.333 --> 00:13:42.834
We have 13 big areas in the state
00:13:43.041 --> 00:13:47.708
that have already been indicated
to be expropriated for land reform,
00:13:47.917 --> 00:13:50.083
we're only waiting
for the president to pay.
00:13:50.250 --> 00:13:54.083
So we're gonna fight
to pressure him to pay for them.
00:13:54.291 --> 00:13:57.250
For instance,
if three of those farms were expropriated,
00:13:57.542 --> 00:14:00.458
it would be enough to settle all
the landless families
00:14:00.667 --> 00:14:01.834
in the state of Goias.
00:14:02.000 --> 00:14:03.125
-Great.
-Let's fight.
00:14:03.291 --> 00:14:04.875
Anyone else?
00:14:05.166 --> 00:14:08.667
I'd like to know what
the required documentation is.
00:14:08.834 --> 00:14:09.875
The documentation?
00:14:11.291 --> 00:14:13.667
The movement makes a registration.
00:14:13.875 --> 00:14:17.667
The Institute of Agrarian Reform only
registers people once they are settled.
00:14:17.875 --> 00:14:20.000
People think the Institute
fights with us,
00:14:20.208 --> 00:14:23.041
but actually we fight to
pressure them into expropriating
00:14:23.250 --> 00:14:24.792
and buying land for us!
00:14:25.000 --> 00:14:26.041
For us...
00:14:26.208 --> 00:14:27.834
So, for now,
there's no register?
00:14:28.041 --> 00:14:30.000
The register now
is with our movement.
00:14:30.208 --> 00:14:33.166
I don't know what my relationship
with the movement will be,
00:14:33.375 --> 00:14:34.875
in terms of presence, you see?
00:14:35.125 --> 00:14:36.208
Because I work,
00:14:36.417 --> 00:14:38.917
my husband has a problem
with one of his fingers.
00:14:39.125 --> 00:14:40.166
I have two kids,
00:14:40.375 --> 00:14:43.417
but I haven't found a place
for them in day care,
00:14:43.583 --> 00:14:44.625
and I study too.
00:14:44.834 --> 00:14:48.750
So I'll try my best to be
present here, you know?
00:14:49.250 --> 00:14:52.291
So I'm already making it clear
to you guys,
00:14:52.500 --> 00:14:55.500
because when I can't come
it's not a matter of not wanting.
00:14:55.750 --> 00:14:58.041
I'm a fighter,
I come from the countryside,
00:14:58.250 --> 00:15:00.000
and we love to cultivate the land,
00:15:00.208 --> 00:15:02.667
I mean, my true wish
is to have my own cattle
00:15:02.875 --> 00:15:03.959
and to grow my crops.
00:15:04.250 --> 00:15:06.834
To have my little piece of land
and work peacefully,
00:15:07.041 --> 00:15:09.208
I really love it,
it's a lot of life for me,
00:15:09.417 --> 00:15:10.917
it's also a dream I have.
00:15:11.083 --> 00:15:15.041
So I want you all to know
that if I can't always be present,
00:15:15.542 --> 00:15:22.458
it's just because I need to work and
struggle to finish my studies.
00:15:23.458 --> 00:15:25.917
I'd like to know how far
we're going.
00:15:26.291 --> 00:15:29.959
Look, everyone wants to know
where it is, guys.
00:15:30.166 --> 00:15:32.708
Everybody wants to guess!
00:15:33.125 --> 00:15:35.041
It's close to Anapolis.
00:15:37.417 --> 00:15:41.375
We talk about 100, 110 km,
but it's no more than that.
00:15:41.625 --> 00:15:42.667
But it may be 30.
00:15:42.875 --> 00:15:45.041
Then it's half an hour
from Anapolis, right?
00:15:45.291 --> 00:15:46.458
It may be only 30 km!
00:15:46.750 --> 00:15:49.417
But we won't discuss
this in detail now,
00:15:49.583 --> 00:15:51.583
because we don't
know everyone here yet.
00:15:51.959 --> 00:15:56.000
All social movements have rats...
00:15:58.208 --> 00:16:02.834
They turn up to find out
what our strategies are,
00:16:03.000 --> 00:16:04.667
what we're planning to do,
00:16:05.667 --> 00:16:09.125
to take the movement down.
00:16:15.708 --> 00:16:17.041
This way!
00:16:17.208 --> 00:16:19.917
This way, brother!
This way!
00:16:20.166 --> 00:16:21.583
That's it, come on, come on!
00:16:22.333 --> 00:16:23.959
Two lines!
00:16:25.250 --> 00:16:28.000
Two lines!
Here, the way is free!
00:16:35.083 --> 00:16:37.000
The area is occupied, here!
00:16:37.208 --> 00:16:38.750
Come on, folks!
00:16:40.375 --> 00:16:42.166
BEWARE OF THE DOG
DO NOT TRESPASS
00:16:50.875 --> 00:16:52.166
Come on in!
00:16:52.375 --> 00:16:54.542
Go on!
00:16:55.375 --> 00:16:56.417
Go in!
00:17:18.667 --> 00:17:21.083
There's more canvas
to cover up over there.
00:17:39.417 --> 00:17:41.041
Has my mother gone to sleep?
00:17:42.667 --> 00:17:45.708
Gee, we'll have to wait for daylight.
00:17:48.375 --> 00:17:52.417
There's a river, there's water there.
There are groups settled there already...
00:17:54.375 --> 00:17:56.792
Some people went
all the way down with the cars,
00:17:57.000 --> 00:17:58.792
but we didn't have the guts!
00:18:29.375 --> 00:18:31.375
And Mr. Senator said hi.
00:20:24.083 --> 00:20:29.625
For God's sake, we're not allowed
to cut a tree whatsoever!
00:20:29.834 --> 00:20:33.000
Not even to make marks,
do you get it?
00:20:33.208 --> 00:20:36.375
You get it?
Because that makes us look bad.
00:20:48.250 --> 00:20:50.166
It's to put the little stove.
00:20:50.333 --> 00:20:52.708
Where's the tent
you're talking about?
00:20:53.458 --> 00:20:54.875
Mom, my tent...
00:20:55.083 --> 00:20:58.667
It's from there, to here,
from here, to there.
00:21:03.667 --> 00:21:05.875
Yes, the exit and the entrance!
00:21:06.083 --> 00:21:09.959
The kitchen will be in the same room,
and the exit will face the bigger house!
00:21:11.250 --> 00:21:12.917
Oh, this is real desire for land!
00:21:13.125 --> 00:21:14.333
Look at all these tents!
00:21:26.291 --> 00:21:28.250
Any names I didn't say?
00:21:42.542 --> 00:21:44.083
Which group?
00:21:44.333 --> 00:21:45.500
Fortaleza.
00:21:47.208 --> 00:21:48.583
It's 62.
00:21:49.125 --> 00:21:51.083
62 people, Fortaleza group.
00:21:53.333 --> 00:21:54.542
She's powerful, right?
00:21:55.000 --> 00:21:56.458
What's the next group?
00:21:56.708 --> 00:22:01.000
Vilmar de Castro and The Valley...
00:22:01.208 --> 00:22:04.333
-Are there any representatives here?
-Yes, here I am.
00:22:04.542 --> 00:22:06.041
How many people?
00:22:08.708 --> 00:22:11.417
All the members of the "Our land" group
00:22:11.625 --> 00:22:14.500
unanimously want to resist
00:22:14.750 --> 00:22:16.458
and to resist in the headquarters,
00:22:16.959 --> 00:22:19.750
if that's what the majority decides.
00:22:20.333 --> 00:22:24.917
They've also said they don't agree
with vandalism in the headquarters,
00:22:25.750 --> 00:22:30.333
but if needed they are willing to
put down trees and bridges,
00:22:30.542 --> 00:22:33.542
and are willing
to take extreme measures.
00:22:33.750 --> 00:22:37.625
They don't wanna go back
to the city or back home,
00:22:37.834 --> 00:22:40.333
they'll only leave for a pre-settlement.
00:22:40.792 --> 00:22:45.083
51 members, and one only
child who has told me,
00:22:45.291 --> 00:22:48.041
"Aunt Lu, count on me,
I'm willing to keep resisting!"
00:22:48.250 --> 00:22:49.625
"Free homeland"!
00:22:49.834 --> 00:22:53.250
In our group,
we have reflected,
00:22:53.917 --> 00:22:55.834
we have discussed...
00:22:56.000 --> 00:23:02.875
and we've decided to stay
for the struggle, right?
00:23:03.083 --> 00:23:05.625
We're 43 people.
00:23:07.291 --> 00:23:08.917
No, not 43.
00:23:09.125 --> 00:23:10.500
44, 45, 46.
00:23:10.708 --> 00:23:12.166
Three more have just arrived.
00:23:14.250 --> 00:23:16.333
Nine people and two children.
00:23:16.667 --> 00:23:18.792
"Olga Benario"!
00:23:19.166 --> 00:23:20.750
23 people
00:23:22.041 --> 00:23:23.041
and...
00:23:23.834 --> 00:23:25.834
lots of ideas have been given here.
00:23:26.625 --> 00:23:29.959
Maybe mess with his cattle,
00:23:30.208 --> 00:23:33.000
burn grazing fields,
silos and corn fields,
00:23:33.625 --> 00:23:35.875
release his cattle in the corridors,
00:23:36.583 --> 00:23:38.834
record all of their actions,
00:23:39.542 --> 00:23:41.959
if they block us,
we'll block the road.
00:23:43.166 --> 00:23:44.708
Girl, no, for God's sake!
00:23:45.291 --> 00:23:46.500
Too violent!
00:23:46.708 --> 00:23:48.125
It's our group's terrorism!
00:23:52.875 --> 00:23:54.250
We fight for real, man!
00:23:54.750 --> 00:23:58.500
"United to win" has
38 adults and one child,
00:23:59.625 --> 00:24:01.500
and it's ready to resist
00:24:01.750 --> 00:24:05.542
opening fences, cutting down trees
and blocking highways.
00:24:08.458 --> 00:24:10.208
39 people?
How many you said?
00:24:10.375 --> 00:24:11.542
39.
00:24:13.875 --> 00:24:15.000
One child.
00:24:15.208 --> 00:24:16.917
"Peace Flag"!
00:24:18.000 --> 00:24:21.959
We'll be waiting for an answer
from the government, right?
00:24:22.166 --> 00:24:23.750
That's what people want.
00:24:25.375 --> 00:24:28.375
Or maybe even bring
the government here,
00:24:28.583 --> 00:24:30.291
some government representative...
00:24:30.583 --> 00:24:33.542
And we think we should be
in different places at a time.
00:24:33.750 --> 00:24:36.000
The proposal would be that,
for instance,
00:24:36.208 --> 00:24:38.708
one guy goes that way,
the other goes that way...
00:24:38.875 --> 00:24:40.208
That's what they proposed.
00:24:40.458 --> 00:24:41.542
"Throwing Down Walls".
00:24:41.750 --> 00:24:44.250
The majority decided to go
to the headquarters too,
00:24:44.458 --> 00:24:45.750
if we must resist there.
00:24:45.959 --> 00:24:47.917
-How many children?
-Everyone. 31 people.
00:24:48.125 --> 00:24:49.208
Children?
00:24:51.708 --> 00:24:53.583
There's a bunch.
00:24:55.208 --> 00:24:56.250
"Liberty Sun" group.
00:24:56.458 --> 00:24:58.750
My group has 20 people,
00:24:59.500 --> 00:25:02.750
and all of them have agreed to stay
no matter what.
00:25:03.583 --> 00:25:06.875
And the majority has decided
to go into the headquarters.
00:25:07.083 --> 00:25:09.000
They also wanna go in there.
00:25:09.792 --> 00:25:11.083
"Free homeland"!
00:25:12.000 --> 00:25:14.583
We won't just set fires randomly,
it' not like that.
00:25:14.875 --> 00:25:18.792
We have to organize, discuss,
make plans, got it?
00:25:19.000 --> 00:25:21.458
So we can be clear
about what we are doing.
00:25:22.166 --> 00:25:24.083
And we don't have
to do this now,
00:25:24.333 --> 00:25:27.542
we don't have
to set this in stone now,
00:25:27.750 --> 00:25:30.500
as if we'd put all that was said
into practice now.
00:25:30.708 --> 00:25:32.250
There is still a lot to happen.
00:25:32.458 --> 00:25:34.458
According to what happens,
00:25:34.625 --> 00:25:37.458
we will ponder what to do.
00:25:38.208 --> 00:25:39.291
Still...
00:25:40.458 --> 00:25:44.000
This discussion helps
to set guidelines
00:25:44.208 --> 00:25:46.667
to what could happen, right?
00:25:47.500 --> 00:25:51.708
Would our strength allow us
to do all we've talked about?
00:25:51.917 --> 00:25:55.417
All the actions suggested
by the groups?
00:25:57.792 --> 00:26:00.083
So we gotta balance...
00:26:00.291 --> 00:26:02.708
We need the masses,
00:26:03.291 --> 00:26:05.208
but the masses
are very small now...
00:26:06.333 --> 00:26:07.708
We have few people.
00:26:08.792 --> 00:26:12.125
The best we can do
is to summon people,
00:26:12.333 --> 00:26:15.291
call everybody and talk to people
in a very realistic way,
00:26:15.500 --> 00:26:18.667
tell people they have to commit
to come, and not only for a day.
00:26:18.875 --> 00:26:20.875
If they wanna come,
they have to stay!
00:26:21.917 --> 00:26:24.500
It's not a weekend camp,
00:26:24.708 --> 00:26:28.000
this is a camp for us
to conquer our piece of land.
00:28:14.792 --> 00:28:18.667
OUT WITH TEMER
00:28:49.208 --> 00:28:50.458
I'll get some water.
00:28:51.291 --> 00:28:53.583
Right. If you exploit my husband,
you'll see!
00:28:54.166 --> 00:28:57.041
He's too thin!
00:28:59.208 --> 00:29:01.500
I'm giving him
a 5,000-liter water tank!
00:29:05.166 --> 00:29:06.917
Now we can enjoy!
00:29:07.375 --> 00:29:09.250
I'll even water my plants!
00:30:36.083 --> 00:30:38.792
There's a man weeding the field
very, very well,
00:30:39.041 --> 00:30:41.917
he's covering the unweeded portions
with the weeded grass!
00:30:42.083 --> 00:30:43.792
What kind of job is this?
00:30:44.166 --> 00:30:46.417
Scattering leftovers
without weeding anything!
00:30:46.625 --> 00:30:49.000
We'll have to weed the field
all over again!
00:30:50.583 --> 00:30:53.959
When you have your own parcel
are you gonna weed like this, brother?
00:30:55.000 --> 00:30:57.041
Aren't you ashamed?
00:31:04.750 --> 00:31:08.000
If you're too lazy, go away with your hoe,
go home to sleep!
00:31:08.542 --> 00:31:10.458
-No!
-Gotta work!
00:31:10.667 --> 00:31:11.959
He'll have to do it well!
00:31:46.750 --> 00:31:50.792
Besides the activities
being planned for every day,
00:31:51.000 --> 00:31:53.875
we'll have to start
taking bigger steps,
00:31:54.041 --> 00:31:59.250
for us to remain, from the perspective
we've been discussing,
00:32:00.000 --> 00:32:03.208
to turn this
into a real settlement!
00:32:03.834 --> 00:32:08.875
And then, we tend to think
only about the positive results,
00:32:10.000 --> 00:32:13.917
but we gotta put our feet on the ground
and consider all those possibilities!
00:32:14.583 --> 00:32:18.667
'Cause depending on the next moves,
maybe by the weekend,
00:32:19.458 --> 00:32:21.917
we might receive an
eviction injunction again...
00:32:23.500 --> 00:32:25.708
We have to consider
that scenario too!
00:32:26.500 --> 00:32:31.625
We can't wait until an injunction comes,
depending on the results,
00:32:31.834 --> 00:32:35.000
to only then start thinking
about our actions!
00:32:35.250 --> 00:32:37.291
Yes, we do have to worry,
we really do.
00:32:37.583 --> 00:32:41.000
They can try to sabotage us,
our activities.
00:32:42.875 --> 00:32:45.208
Or there might be
some sort of provocation...
00:32:48.000 --> 00:32:51.125
Maybe the factory employees
might do something
00:32:51.375 --> 00:32:52.583
or try to argue with us,
00:32:52.792 --> 00:32:56.542
and we have to keep our people cool,
and avoid any trouble.
00:32:56.834 --> 00:32:58.417
These are hard times, right?
00:32:58.917 --> 00:33:01.375
Now one of the things we have
00:33:01.667 --> 00:33:04.166
to spread among our comrades,
00:33:04.667 --> 00:33:09.708
is that whether the land
is granted or not,
00:33:10.208 --> 00:33:11.667
the scenario is
resistance!
00:33:12.125 --> 00:33:15.667
And our strength is in our numbers,
that is our correlation of forces.
00:33:16.750 --> 00:33:21.375
Mere registration does not
accomplish resistance.
00:33:21.583 --> 00:33:26.667
It's not only about transforming
this particular land into a settlement.
00:33:26.875 --> 00:33:31.041
But it's a political game that involves
the whole process of criminalization
00:33:31.250 --> 00:33:33.959
that our movement has been
suffering lately, right?
00:33:34.166 --> 00:33:36.041
We have to keep this in mind.
00:33:37.291 --> 00:33:40.834
If we had the strength to occupy
this land a year ago
00:33:41.041 --> 00:33:44.708
with 1,000, or 1,300 people,
00:33:44.917 --> 00:33:48.250
we'll have to bring a significant
number of people to the occupancy.
00:33:48.458 --> 00:33:49.667
It's like Beth said,
00:33:49.875 --> 00:33:53.500
if we don't have a good number of people,
depending on the context,
00:33:53.708 --> 00:33:57.458
we might be reduced to
the dust we see around us.
00:34:27.583 --> 00:34:29.083
Someone took their shoes off.
00:34:29.500 --> 00:34:32.625
Nobody's wearing shoes here,
everybody's wearing flip flops...
00:34:39.041 --> 00:34:40.125
What's that smell?
00:34:40.375 --> 00:34:41.458
Duno.
00:34:41.667 --> 00:34:43.959
Isn't it the little bug that
burnt? It stinks.
00:34:44.250 --> 00:34:47.000
That's why the lights went off,
it fell inside the lamp.
00:34:47.250 --> 00:34:49.500
Oh, there was an insect
barbecue in that lamp!
00:34:49.792 --> 00:34:52.667
I guess that beetle touched me,
I can still feel smell it!
00:34:52.959 --> 00:34:54.959
It's Bento, he didn't
wash his feet!
00:34:59.333 --> 00:35:03.125
We gotta find a way
to go there and organize things
00:35:03.333 --> 00:35:05.917
'cause we still have to plant
the rest of the corn.
00:35:06.083 --> 00:35:07.291
Yeah...
00:35:11.625 --> 00:35:13.667
Isn't there a holiday
one of these days?
00:35:13.875 --> 00:35:15.250
-Isn't there, Giovana?
-Huh?
00:35:15.458 --> 00:35:17.834
-No more holidays?
-I guess they're over now.
00:35:18.375 --> 00:35:19.583
Can I cover the pans, Ca?
00:35:19.750 --> 00:35:23.166
-Bugs might fall all over our food.
-Ugh, many already did...
00:35:23.417 --> 00:35:25.625
We'll eat these leftovers
tomorrow...
00:36:10.959 --> 00:36:14.333
Did you know that in Brazil everyone
owns their own farm?
00:36:14.500 --> 00:36:16.166
Oh, yes! A farm!
00:36:16.375 --> 00:36:20.000
Mine is right here, in the city,
in the middle of my kitchen.
00:36:20.208 --> 00:36:22.000
I just have to open my fridge.
00:36:23.375 --> 00:36:24.667
There I have my orchard...
00:36:24.875 --> 00:36:27.959
"Everybody" who?
Who's got a farm of their own.
00:36:28.166 --> 00:36:29.750
She said everyone owns one.
00:36:30.166 --> 00:36:32.792
She said it's in each person's fridge,
did you hear?
00:36:33.291 --> 00:36:36.250
Even the clothes I wear
come from my farm.
00:36:36.542 --> 00:36:38.500
From my cotton plantations.
00:36:38.708 --> 00:36:40.458
Does everybody even have a fridge?
00:36:40.625 --> 00:36:43.208
In my farm, I even have
a sugarcane plantation!
00:36:44.250 --> 00:36:46.625
And I love this farm called Brazil!
00:36:47.000 --> 00:36:48.708
If that farm's in the fridge,
00:36:48.917 --> 00:36:51.750
then not everyone has it, right?
00:36:51.959 --> 00:36:54.083
And they have the guts
to say that on TV...
00:36:54.333 --> 00:36:55.458
I'm agro.
00:36:55.667 --> 00:36:57.000
Agrobrazilian!
00:36:57.417 --> 00:37:01.208
AGRO:
Brazil growing strong and healthy
00:37:02.583 --> 00:37:05.041
See, Bayer produces genetically
modified soybeans.
00:37:05.250 --> 00:37:06.333
We plant them,
00:37:06.583 --> 00:37:11.083
the soybeans grow, then you have
to spray poison all over.
00:37:11.291 --> 00:37:14.917
Then we get sick
and whose medicine we're buying?
00:37:15.750 --> 00:37:17.583
Bayer's!
00:37:17.792 --> 00:37:23.333
Only then, you will see
00:37:23.500 --> 00:37:28.792
our Lord has power.
00:37:29.166 --> 00:37:35.834
When you leave
everything at the altar.
00:37:36.708 --> 00:37:40.166
Today we're reaching
7 days of prayer
00:37:40.375 --> 00:37:42.625
on behalf of the land,
00:37:42.834 --> 00:37:45.166
we've been doing
this sacrifice
00:37:45.375 --> 00:37:47.792
of praying throughout
the last nights,
00:37:48.500 --> 00:37:51.625
in the faith that only Jesus
will give us this victory.
00:37:52.458 --> 00:37:54.917
We believe the Bible
is the only true book.
00:37:55.125 --> 00:37:59.458
We pray to God because
it's only through our faith
00:37:59.667 --> 00:38:02.708
that He'll answer our demands.
00:38:02.917 --> 00:38:04.041
Oh beloved Jesus,
00:38:04.250 --> 00:38:05.500
bless us in Your power,
00:38:05.667 --> 00:38:10.291
Hallelujah, Beloved Jesus
you have been working with us, oh Lord!
00:38:10.458 --> 00:38:14.333
Hallelujah in the Judiciary System,
our Sacred Father!
00:38:14.542 --> 00:38:16.583
Hallelujah with the lawyers.
00:38:16.750 --> 00:38:20.333
Hallelujah, Jesus, with the judges
and the law people...
00:38:21.542 --> 00:38:23.750
Please go visit them tonight,
Beloved Jesus!
00:38:23.959 --> 00:38:27.667
Speak into those hearts,
oh King of Glory!
00:38:28.208 --> 00:38:30.834
Operate, oh Mystery God,
00:38:31.000 --> 00:38:34.083
so they can,
oh Powerful Saint and Father,
00:38:34.250 --> 00:38:38.041
have their humble hearts
touched with love...
00:38:38.208 --> 00:38:41.375
so they can see,
oh Beloved God,
00:38:41.917 --> 00:38:46.083
that not only the big landowners
need land to plant!
00:38:46.291 --> 00:38:50.500
Make them see, Beloved Jesus,
that we've been trying...
00:38:50.667 --> 00:38:55.625
to have some portion
of land to plant what we need to eat,
00:38:55.834 --> 00:38:58.041
and feed the city of
Santa Helena!
00:39:09.917 --> 00:39:12.000
IMAGE
00:43:49.750 --> 00:43:53.250
I'm handing out
just a few today.
00:43:55.500 --> 00:43:56.875
Without feminism...?
00:43:57.125 --> 00:43:58.625
There's no socialism!
00:44:03.708 --> 00:44:05.458
If the countryside doesn't produce?
00:44:05.667 --> 00:44:06.875
...the city doesn't eat!
00:44:07.834 --> 00:44:09.667
If the countryside doesn't produce?
00:44:09.792 --> 00:44:11.583
...the city doesn't eat!
00:44:14.291 --> 00:44:15.834
Hey, Santa Helena town!
00:44:16.125 --> 00:44:19.291
Rural workers are here, people!
00:44:20.417 --> 00:44:24.041
We are here with our
healthy food production!
00:44:24.250 --> 00:44:27.250
And up ahead,
you can see some of our work.
00:44:28.458 --> 00:44:32.542
We want to know what you crave:
sugarcane or...
00:44:32.792 --> 00:44:36.250
... healthy food without pesticide?
00:44:40.208 --> 00:44:43.917
I'm going to play my guitar.
00:44:44.125 --> 00:44:45.917
LEONIR ORBAK OCCUPANCY
00:44:46.125 --> 00:44:48.875
I'm a black singer.
00:44:50.417 --> 00:44:52.542
Let's bring healthy food
to our tables.
00:44:52.834 --> 00:44:55.333
Here's the choice for you to make:
00:44:55.542 --> 00:44:59.542
Do you want to put cane on your table?
Or food?
00:44:59.917 --> 00:45:02.500
This is our role,
this is our job,
00:45:02.708 --> 00:45:06.458
Here you can see the work of
the Leonir Orbak occupancy families,
00:45:06.667 --> 00:45:08.375
near the Santa Helena mill!
00:45:08.583 --> 00:45:13.959
A factory that owes 10 billion
to the Santa Helena community!
00:45:14.166 --> 00:45:16.667
You have two options
in front of the march!
00:45:16.875 --> 00:45:19.125
What are you taking home
to your kids:
00:45:19.333 --> 00:45:25.750
sugarcane or healthy food
without pesticides?
00:45:25.959 --> 00:45:28.750
You can make that choice.
00:45:29.250 --> 00:45:31.875
So, people, don't be scared,
this is our work!
00:45:32.083 --> 00:45:35.291
This is the work done by
the Leonir Orbak occupancy families!
00:45:35.917 --> 00:45:38.417
This is to show
the Santa Helena community
00:45:38.834 --> 00:45:40.708
that we're alive...
00:45:40.959 --> 00:45:43.458
and we're aware
of all that fraud!
00:45:43.750 --> 00:45:46.917
So we ask for
a symbolic contribution.
00:45:47.125 --> 00:45:51.208
This is planted by us,
without any pesticide,
00:45:51.375 --> 00:45:53.291
at the Leonir Orbak occupation.
00:45:53.500 --> 00:45:55.417
Look!
Everything's organic!
00:45:55.792 --> 00:45:58.250
Soon, our children won't even have
drinking water!
00:45:58.458 --> 00:46:00.834
That's what we're demanding,
what we're against.
00:46:01.041 --> 00:46:04.417
We don't want to shut down the factory,
we want it to keep running,
00:46:04.625 --> 00:46:07.041
but in a healthy way,
that satisfies everyone.
00:46:07.250 --> 00:46:08.708
Okay? That's what we want.
00:46:08.959 --> 00:46:12.875
Please read this folder,
it explains the process in details!
00:46:13.083 --> 00:46:14.333
Bento, Bento!
00:46:16.500 --> 00:46:19.667
Coriander, pepper,
and onions.
00:46:19.875 --> 00:46:20.875
Repeat after me:
00:46:21.667 --> 00:46:23.417
There are no bandits there!
00:46:23.667 --> 00:46:25.750
There are working families there!
00:46:25.959 --> 00:46:28.333
There you have families
that have a dream,
00:46:28.625 --> 00:46:32.083
people who dream
of achieving something,
00:46:32.250 --> 00:46:34.083
to raise their kids properly
00:46:36.083 --> 00:46:38.000
and dream of feeding them healthily!
00:46:38.166 --> 00:46:40.542
LET'S PROTECT THE FACTORY,
OUR CITY'S PATRIMONY
00:46:41.875 --> 00:46:44.166
You can make your choice!
00:46:49.375 --> 00:46:52.667
Rice blooms into bunches
and beans flourishes,
00:46:53.333 --> 00:46:55.500
Corn in straw, heart full of love.
00:47:08.291 --> 00:47:11.166
The Federal Court of Anapolis...
00:47:12.291 --> 00:47:13.458
Eh...
00:47:14.417 --> 00:47:19.333
... granted the adjudication
of levied properties
00:47:19.583 --> 00:47:22.291
owned by the factory
in favor of the Brazilian State.
00:47:22.750 --> 00:47:24.625
Nonetheless,
00:47:24.834 --> 00:47:29.250
the Santa Helena factory
has appealed against the decision.
00:47:29.458 --> 00:47:32.417
Once the decision was passed on
00:47:32.625 --> 00:47:34.834
to the Superior Courts,
00:47:35.041 --> 00:47:37.500
specifically the Supreme Court of Justice,
00:47:39.166 --> 00:47:43.000
then that adjudication was revoked,
00:47:45.375 --> 00:47:47.083
based on the argument that
00:47:47.291 --> 00:47:51.458
acts of disposition of property owned
by a company undergoing reorganization
00:47:51.708 --> 00:47:54.708
are under the exclusive jurisdiction
of the bankruptcy court.
00:47:54.917 --> 00:47:58.750
The embargoes must be
prosecuted and judged.
00:47:58.959 --> 00:48:01.375
But in spite of this fact,
00:48:01.583 --> 00:48:06.917
we must determine the validity of the
adjudication that has been sentenced.
00:48:07.708 --> 00:48:09.000
There are today,
00:48:09.667 --> 00:48:13.625
more than 600 families encamped
in a determined area,
00:48:14.000 --> 00:48:15.792
an area of 15 hectares.
00:48:15.959 --> 00:48:17.750
Those families produce
00:48:18.041 --> 00:48:20.959
food, vegetables.
00:48:21.917 --> 00:48:24.542
In the encampment,
those families do studies,
00:48:24.917 --> 00:48:26.333
they go to school,
00:48:26.542 --> 00:48:28.959
they participate
in the Santa Helena community.
00:48:29.250 --> 00:48:32.208
So what we demand
in this specific case is that,
00:48:32.417 --> 00:48:37.208
in case this estate
is sent for adjudication,
00:48:37.667 --> 00:48:42.125
and subsequently,
for the purpose of land reform,
00:48:42.750 --> 00:48:46.834
this could be a leading case,
00:48:47.041 --> 00:48:48.041
and why is that?
00:48:48.250 --> 00:48:51.667
Because Santa Helena currently
does not produce any food.
00:48:51.875 --> 00:48:54.000
It only produces sugarcane!
00:48:54.208 --> 00:48:56.083
With agrichemicals, by the way.
00:48:56.291 --> 00:48:57.959
It only produces sickness!
00:48:58.125 --> 00:48:59.792
And fraud!
00:49:00.041 --> 00:49:03.125
The Santa Helena factory
is among the 10 largest debtors...
00:49:03.333 --> 00:49:06.083
...actually, the group!
The Naoum Group. It's a family,
00:49:06.291 --> 00:49:10.208
They are among the 10 largest debtors
to the Brazilian government!
00:49:10.417 --> 00:49:13.875
Although we have to understand
the social side of it...
00:49:14.166 --> 00:49:19.125
the Federal Government said the property
would be assigned to land reform.
00:49:19.959 --> 00:49:24.417
That raised those workers' expectations,
in the region of Santa Helena.
00:49:25.208 --> 00:49:28.583
If those 20 properties
were to go to agrarian reform,
00:49:29.041 --> 00:49:33.083
it's legitimate that
all the workers would expect
00:49:33.291 --> 00:49:36.417
land reform in the region,
00:49:36.708 --> 00:49:38.834
and the redistribution
for that purpose.
00:49:39.875 --> 00:49:44.000
I respect the Pastoral Land Commission,
which has been admitted as amicus curiae
00:49:44.250 --> 00:49:46.542
to make the Landless' defense,
00:49:46.792 --> 00:49:48.875
because they foresee
the possibility that
00:49:49.083 --> 00:49:51.875
those properties might be considered
for agrarian reform.
00:49:52.083 --> 00:49:53.959
But now we have to wait.
00:49:54.166 --> 00:49:56.708
We look at this kind of social issue
very carefully,
00:49:56.917 --> 00:50:00.792
the judiciary system as a whole does,
as well as all of us here.
00:50:01.000 --> 00:50:04.291
But we have to consider
the importance of maintaining
00:50:04.500 --> 00:50:08.375
peace and order
at the Santa Helena factory,
00:50:08.708 --> 00:50:12.041
so the litigation can run properly.
00:50:12.250 --> 00:50:15.125
It's not that I am supporting
the debtor,
00:50:15.333 --> 00:50:16.834
not at all.
00:50:17.125 --> 00:50:18.875
Once the embargo execution exists,
00:50:19.125 --> 00:50:22.125
the execution law says we cannot
determine the adjudication
00:50:22.333 --> 00:50:23.500
before the embargoes.
00:50:24.208 --> 00:50:26.333
Also due to the claim of debt expiration,
00:50:26.583 --> 00:50:30.625
and the possibility of payment in
installments once the debt is calculated,
00:50:31.250 --> 00:50:37.333
I don't see how I could disagree
with the trial judge,
00:50:37.625 --> 00:50:40.959
who is heading the litigation for
the company's reorganization.
00:50:41.208 --> 00:50:42.792
Right now, from what I can see,
00:50:42.959 --> 00:50:48.000
we were all in favor of those people
who want to have access to the land,
00:50:48.333 --> 00:50:49.458
who want to produce
00:50:49.750 --> 00:50:51.834
and bring development to the region.
00:50:53.166 --> 00:50:58.000
But, at a second moment,
this social awareness
00:50:58.250 --> 00:51:02.250
that makes us want
to help those in need,
00:51:02.500 --> 00:51:04.542
must to be submitted to the law.
00:51:04.750 --> 00:51:11.000
I think Your Honor uses the same
mechanism when judging this case.
00:51:11.333 --> 00:51:13.667
And here, as Your Honor has put so well,
00:51:14.083 --> 00:51:20.041
even if there was no judgment
related to the company's bankruptcy,
00:51:20.333 --> 00:51:24.917
even in the Federal Justice,
this adjudication would not be valid.
00:51:25.375 --> 00:51:27.792
Thus, as Your Honor has highlighted,
00:51:28.291 --> 00:51:32.500
there is a need for the judgment
of the embargoes to be depleted.
00:51:33.083 --> 00:51:35.291
Because while there is
no seizure decision,
00:51:35.500 --> 00:51:38.000
there is no way to know
if the debt really exists!
00:51:38.375 --> 00:51:40.500
At least, technically.
00:51:41.208 --> 00:51:44.583
So when we add those two reasons,
00:51:44.875 --> 00:51:47.041
and those items we have gone through,
00:51:47.291 --> 00:51:50.250
it is painful for me, I admit,
00:51:50.458 --> 00:51:53.667
to say that we don't see
agrarian reform there.
00:51:54.583 --> 00:52:00.750
So we are subjected to the law
and the court order,
00:52:01.000 --> 00:52:05.125
and must overcome our wish
that things were different,
00:52:05.375 --> 00:52:09.834
and that we could be
redistributing land,
00:52:10.041 --> 00:52:13.750
if we could have a decision that would
allow the distribution of that land
00:52:13.959 --> 00:52:17.875
to the Landless Workers Movement,
to the people settled there, right now.
00:52:18.625 --> 00:52:21.333
"Encamped" for the moment,
not actually "settled".
00:52:22.458 --> 00:52:24.291
But for those reasons,
00:52:24.500 --> 00:52:28.125
I cannot vote differently
from Your Honor,
00:52:28.417 --> 00:52:31.041
just as endorsed by Dr. Mauricio.
00:52:31.250 --> 00:52:32.750
This is my vote, Your Honor.
00:52:32.959 --> 00:52:35.834
This trial is now over.
Thank you everybody.
00:52:36.583 --> 00:52:38.000
Let's continue our agenda.
00:52:39.917 --> 00:52:41.125
Is there another one?
00:52:44.375 --> 00:52:45.959
Number 112.
00:52:47.875 --> 00:52:53.375
This is a matter that has been
going on for years...
00:52:58.041 --> 00:53:02.708
It was sort of expected, and later on,
we should evaluate that.
00:53:03.041 --> 00:53:04.792
We never expect to accomplish much
00:53:05.000 --> 00:53:07.834
in terms of land reform
in the judiciary system.
00:53:08.542 --> 00:53:14.959
Not even from the legislative or
the executive, it's very difficult.
00:53:15.250 --> 00:53:19.250
It's a whole other fight that we must
always have to conquer those spaces
00:53:19.458 --> 00:53:23.250
and achieve something
from those arenas.
00:53:24.917 --> 00:53:30.667
It's not easy to analyze those
legal terms they use, you know?
00:53:31.000 --> 00:53:33.250
It's very hard to digest
what they say.
00:53:33.458 --> 00:53:35.834
First of all, they don't use
everyday language.
00:53:36.041 --> 00:53:39.125
You know, while we listen, we sit there,
totally spaced out...
00:53:39.500 --> 00:53:43.125
We feel bad, because we are
in front of a judge
00:53:43.500 --> 00:53:46.250
with all those big words
and everything.
00:53:46.458 --> 00:53:49.875
Afterwards, in order to adapt it
in a way our people can understand,
00:53:50.083 --> 00:53:51.792
we need some strategies.
00:53:52.083 --> 00:53:54.959
We do have to explain things,
even if it takes a long time.
00:53:55.208 --> 00:53:58.125
To the older people, for whom
it's harder to understand...
00:53:58.333 --> 00:54:00.792
we must take our time
to explain things to them.
00:54:01.000 --> 00:54:03.667
To that little old lady,
it's them we need to talk to!
00:54:03.875 --> 00:54:06.250
No need to talk to those who
already understand.
00:54:06.458 --> 00:54:12.708
Because the ones who can use
fancy words, legalese or whatever,
00:54:12.917 --> 00:54:16.875
or even politicians and religious leaders,
00:54:17.083 --> 00:54:18.750
they have that advantage,
00:54:18.959 --> 00:54:22.625
while we're doing the opposite,
regarding our people's emancipation.
00:54:22.834 --> 00:54:27.166
In spite of all difficulties, those who
will really get the message across
00:54:27.333 --> 00:54:28.458
are the coordinators.
00:54:28.667 --> 00:54:32.208
For instance, Eremilton is the one
who knows how to speak to his base,
00:54:32.417 --> 00:54:34.125
so he should do it.
00:54:34.500 --> 00:54:36.959
Not me, I don't live here!
Of course I can talk,
00:54:37.208 --> 00:54:39.417
but the doubts will stay
even after I'm gone.
00:54:39.625 --> 00:54:42.708
Who is going to clarify their
doubts every day?
00:54:44.166 --> 00:54:47.959
I analyzed the judge,
while was speaking.
00:54:48.166 --> 00:54:52.041
He said he isn't defending
a factory
00:54:52.500 --> 00:54:58.667
that commits tax fraud,
00:54:58.917 --> 00:55:02.375
he emphasized it,
made it very clear.
00:55:02.542 --> 00:55:06.750
He also said the factory has been under
bankruptcy process for 10 years,
00:55:06.959 --> 00:55:10.000
and there will be an assembly
about that for the first time.
00:55:10.250 --> 00:55:12.375
So no one knows
what's coming next.
00:55:15.583 --> 00:55:20.041
If it's never happened before, we can't
guess what's gonna happen.
00:55:20.250 --> 00:55:25.333
And he said he wouldn't judge the case
because we also have bills of review.
00:55:25.542 --> 00:55:30.000
And this is also something
we can't explain,
00:55:30.208 --> 00:55:31.625
what are these review bills?
00:55:31.834 --> 00:55:34.750
Does it have to do with our mates
who have been arrested?
00:55:34.959 --> 00:55:38.250
What does this mean exactly?
00:55:38.708 --> 00:55:45.041
This is something the people from
the law sector will be able to explain.
00:55:45.250 --> 00:55:49.625
But so far he hasn't judged our case
but hasn't judged theirs either,
00:55:49.834 --> 00:55:52.542
so it's kind of balanced.
00:55:52.708 --> 00:55:57.417
But what we can understand
very clearly is that it's not over yet,
00:55:57.583 --> 00:56:00.959
that we're not going to leave anyway,
like our mate said,
00:56:01.125 --> 00:56:03.083
and the game is still on.
00:56:03.291 --> 00:56:06.291
The case is still ongoing,
let's hold each other's hands...
00:56:06.500 --> 00:56:08.792
But we can't let people's dreams die.
00:56:08.959 --> 00:56:12.708
So I think it's fine and tomorrow
we'll keep fighting.
00:56:12.917 --> 00:56:14.333
And this is our struggle!
00:56:14.542 --> 00:56:17.959
I'm solid! I'll only move from here
directly into my share!
00:56:18.166 --> 00:56:19.708
By God's will, yes!
00:56:26.542 --> 00:56:29.875
Fight!
To build people's agrarian reform!
00:56:30.125 --> 00:56:33.542
Fight!
To build people's agrarian reform!
00:56:33.917 --> 00:56:37.417
Fight!
To build people's agrarian reform!
00:56:37.834 --> 00:56:39.458
Free homeland!
00:56:39.667 --> 00:56:41.375
We will win!
00:56:41.625 --> 00:56:43.208
Free homeland!
00:56:43.417 --> 00:56:45.000
We will win!
00:56:45.208 --> 00:56:46.792
Free homeland!
00:56:47.000 --> 00:56:48.166
We will win!
00:56:48.375 --> 00:56:49.625
Rebellion is necessary!
00:56:49.875 --> 00:56:51.458
To do the land reform!
00:56:51.708 --> 00:56:52.959
Rebellion is necessary!
00:56:53.208 --> 00:56:54.792
To do the land reform!
00:56:55.000 --> 00:56:56.333
Rebellion is necessary!
00:56:56.583 --> 00:56:58.166
To do the land reform!
00:56:58.583 --> 00:57:00.208
Even if it gets tough!
00:57:00.500 --> 00:57:02.083
This land is ours!
00:57:02.291 --> 00:57:03.917
Even if it gets tough!
00:57:04.208 --> 00:57:05.792
This land is ours!
00:57:06.083 --> 00:57:07.708
Even if it gets tough!
00:57:08.000 --> 00:57:09.583
This land is ours!
00:57:13.000 --> 00:57:16.333
Good morning, fellows.
My voice is not very good today,
00:57:16.542 --> 00:57:22.291
but I'd like to pass on the news
we have brought from there.
00:57:22.792 --> 00:57:27.792
Let's welcome our visiting comrades
who came to contribute today,
00:57:28.083 --> 00:57:30.250
thank you for being here.
00:57:30.417 --> 00:57:33.125
Also all the other relatives
who came here today,
00:57:33.417 --> 00:57:36.542
I can see many
family members here,
00:57:36.750 --> 00:57:38.500
you are all very welcome.
00:57:40.375 --> 00:57:43.708
So I guess we'll start
00:57:44.208 --> 00:57:49.834
with the coordinators' understanding
of the situation.
00:57:50.041 --> 00:57:55.542
About the judicial matters,
we'll have some answers later on today.
00:57:59.333 --> 00:58:02.208
How much is there here,
250 grams?
00:58:02.458 --> 00:58:03.458
Around that.
00:58:04.917 --> 00:58:06.333
You have to chop it all up.
00:58:08.291 --> 00:58:11.000
This is good for long, thin leaves,
you know?
00:58:11.291 --> 00:58:12.708
So it's good for grass,
00:58:12.917 --> 00:58:14.291
it's good for pastures...
00:58:14.708 --> 00:58:17.875
Oh, so each of these recipes is
for a particular type of leaf?
00:58:18.083 --> 00:58:19.917
Yes. It's no good for
round leaves.
00:58:20.208 --> 00:58:24.041
After it's ready, it's 1 liter of
this solution for each 10 liters of water.
00:58:24.250 --> 00:58:25.375
Then you can spray it.
00:58:25.583 --> 00:58:28.708
-It's great for pasture!
-So this will be enough for 80 liters!
00:58:28.917 --> 00:58:30.208
No...
Oh, ok, yes.
00:58:30.417 --> 00:58:33.333
-8 liters for 80 liters of water!
-That's it.
00:58:33.834 --> 00:58:36.583
You can throw it on the field
before planting the grass.
00:58:36.792 --> 00:58:39.417
-Just pure cabbage?
-Yes, only cabbage.
00:58:39.708 --> 00:58:41.291
Just cabbage with water.
00:58:43.583 --> 00:58:44.875
It's a crop desiccant.
00:58:45.083 --> 00:58:46.333
Hmm, alright then.
00:58:46.500 --> 00:58:47.792
Organic desiccant...
00:58:48.000 --> 00:58:50.834
-It's the same as Roundup herbicide.
-Cabbage desiccant!
00:58:51.000 --> 00:58:52.417
Let's write it down here...
00:58:52.625 --> 00:58:54.667
I guess we can already close it now.
00:58:54.917 --> 00:58:56.291
Is the lid around?
00:58:56.500 --> 00:58:58.041
We'd need a stick to stir it?
00:58:58.208 --> 00:58:59.458
So, all of you present,
00:58:59.667 --> 00:59:00.875
all of us actually...
00:59:01.625 --> 00:59:04.417
-Stir it every two days?
-We'll have to be very careful,
00:59:04.625 --> 00:59:06.667
so that no one opens it
or throws it away!
00:59:06.917 --> 00:59:09.125
Just write it
on a piece of paper, P.C.!
00:59:09.333 --> 00:59:10.959
Write, "Do not open"!
00:59:11.166 --> 00:59:12.792
Or, "Open once every two days".
00:59:13.291 --> 00:59:14.291
Ok, let me see.
00:59:14.583 --> 00:59:16.417
Every two days, right, Grandma?
00:59:17.792 --> 00:59:18.917
Cabbage desiccant...
00:59:20.000 --> 00:59:21.333
... organic.
00:59:23.333 --> 00:59:25.875
No need to write "cabbage",
just "organic".
00:59:27.583 --> 00:59:29.208
We're the only ones aware of it!
00:59:30.875 --> 00:59:32.667
So, it will be ready on the 21st...
00:59:32.875 --> 00:59:34.458
What day is today, the 1st? Ok.
00:59:34.667 --> 00:59:36.000
It'll be good by the 21st.
00:59:45.333 --> 00:59:47.041
I've planted some tobacco seeds...
00:59:50.500 --> 00:59:52.375
Hey, lacemaker woman...
00:59:55.959 --> 00:59:57.583
Hey, lacemaker woman...
00:59:59.041 --> 01:00:03.458
Teach me how to make lace,
I'll teach you how to work.
01:00:06.583 --> 01:00:11.625
Woman from the Northeast,
Get the laundry to wash.
01:00:12.792 --> 01:00:14.917
Hey, lacemaker woman...
01:00:16.708 --> 01:00:20.583
The day I grab my parcel,
I'll have so many water hoses!
01:00:21.375 --> 01:00:23.250
Drip irrigation and all!
01:01:23.083 --> 01:01:26.333
There's an entrance to the patio here
and here's a big barrier.
01:01:26.583 --> 01:01:28.917
One barrier here and another one here.
01:01:30.792 --> 01:01:33.542
A barrier here, another here,
and a big gate here.
01:01:36.875 --> 01:01:39.250
-How many gates are there?
-Only this one.
01:01:39.500 --> 01:01:43.125
The heavy trucks pass by here
and the small cars go through the barrier.
01:01:43.333 --> 01:01:44.959
The carts also go through here.
01:01:45.166 --> 01:01:46.166
-P.C.?
-Yeah?
01:01:48.208 --> 01:01:49.667
There's a gate here, right?
01:01:49.917 --> 01:01:50.959
Only here.
01:01:51.125 --> 01:01:52.542
This one here is for trucks?
01:01:52.750 --> 01:01:54.250
Yes, this is all for trucks.
01:01:54.458 --> 01:01:57.375
For this action to be effective,
we gotta stop the factory.
01:01:57.583 --> 01:01:59.291
If we don't,
the media won't come.
01:01:59.500 --> 01:02:00.542
So it's right here.
01:02:00.708 --> 01:02:02.834
And we must be prepared
for the repression.
01:02:05.208 --> 01:02:07.417
Out with Naoum Group!
01:02:07.708 --> 01:02:09.875
Out with Naoum Group!
01:02:10.083 --> 01:02:11.417
Out with Naoum Group!
01:02:11.625 --> 01:02:12.708
Out with Naoum Group!
01:02:16.959 --> 01:02:18.125
SANTA HELENA FACTORY
01:02:18.834 --> 01:02:20.083
Out with Temer!
01:02:20.458 --> 01:02:22.208
Go, go, go!
01:02:22.417 --> 01:02:24.625
Out with Naoum Group!
01:02:28.834 --> 01:02:30.542
Out with Temer!
01:02:30.750 --> 01:02:34.417
No trucks will go in or out,
but people are free to go out.
01:02:36.375 --> 01:02:39.208
We're the people
who aren't afraid to fight!
01:02:39.417 --> 01:02:44.959
We're the people
who aren't afraid to fight!
01:02:45.166 --> 01:02:50.625
We're the people
who aren't afraid to fight!
01:02:50.834 --> 01:02:52.333
If you can't cope with the ants,
01:02:52.500 --> 01:02:53.917
Don't mess with the anthill!
01:02:54.166 --> 01:02:55.583
If you can't cope with the ants,
01:02:55.792 --> 01:02:57.291
Don't mess with the anthill!
01:02:57.458 --> 01:03:00.000
Be on your toes,
01:03:00.208 --> 01:03:01.834
If you can't cope with the ants,
01:03:02.041 --> 01:03:03.625
Don't mess with the anthill!
01:03:08.959 --> 01:03:10.708
If you can't cope with the ants,
01:03:10.875 --> 01:03:12.583
Don't mess with the anthill!
01:03:17.959 --> 01:03:20.000
This factory is ours!
01:03:35.125 --> 01:03:37.792
Do the land reform!
01:03:44.708 --> 01:03:47.083
There is nothing to fear.
01:03:48.708 --> 01:03:54.708
Those who order to kill,
might as well end up dying!
01:03:56.667 --> 01:04:00.542
The risk taken by the stick
is the same as the risk taken by the axe.
01:04:00.750 --> 01:04:04.750
There's nothing to fear.
01:04:05.458 --> 01:04:12.250
Those who order to kill,
might as well end up dying!
01:04:14.000 --> 01:04:18.208
The risk taken by the stick
is the same as the risk taken by the axe.
01:04:18.417 --> 01:04:21.959
There's nothing to fear.
01:04:22.333 --> 01:04:29.208
Those who order to kill,
might as well end up dying!
01:04:30.041 --> 01:04:32.500
There'll only be land reform
01:04:32.708 --> 01:04:36.208
With peasants and workers united!
01:04:36.417 --> 01:04:39.917
There'll only be land reform
01:04:40.125 --> 01:04:43.542
With peasants and workers united!
01:04:43.708 --> 01:04:47.000
Our first task is to occupy
01:04:47.208 --> 01:04:50.333
Unproductive land
to work is all we want!
01:04:50.583 --> 01:04:54.166
Our first task is to occupy
01:04:54.375 --> 01:04:57.834
Unproductive land
to work is all we want!
01:04:58.000 --> 01:05:01.708
There'll only be land reform
01:05:01.875 --> 01:05:05.083
With peasants and workers united!
01:05:05.291 --> 01:05:09.083
There'll only be land reform
01:05:09.291 --> 01:05:12.708
With peasants and workers united!
01:05:12.917 --> 01:05:16.041
Our second task is to resist,
01:05:16.250 --> 01:05:19.917
To be organized so we can
struggle and remain.
01:05:20.125 --> 01:05:23.333
Our second task is to resist,
01:05:23.542 --> 01:05:27.041
To be organized so we can
struggle and remain.
01:05:27.208 --> 01:05:30.875
There'll only be land reform
01:05:31.083 --> 01:05:34.667
With peasants and workers united!
01:05:34.875 --> 01:05:38.333
There'll only be land reform
01:05:38.542 --> 01:05:42.083
With peasants and workers united!
01:07:24.125 --> 01:07:25.291
Hi, dad. Blessing.
01:07:25.458 --> 01:07:27.125
Hi, God bless you, William.
01:07:27.333 --> 01:07:28.417
How are you?
01:07:28.625 --> 01:07:30.041
I'm good.
01:07:30.333 --> 01:07:31.375
Where's mom?
01:07:31.583 --> 01:07:33.000
She's inside. Just call her.
01:07:36.959 --> 01:07:39.583
-It's so cold.
-Do you want a coat?
01:07:40.583 --> 01:07:42.792
-Want some coffee?
-A little bit.
01:07:45.583 --> 01:07:47.375
This is your first time here, right?
01:07:47.542 --> 01:07:50.083
Yes. When I came here
the shed was down there,
01:07:50.250 --> 01:07:52.417
I hadn't seen this one yet.
01:07:52.667 --> 01:07:56.500
Some time ago, I was having lunch
with the girls,
01:07:56.708 --> 01:07:58.583
so, I was eating,
and they said,
01:07:58.834 --> 01:08:00.417
"Look, your dad!"
01:08:00.625 --> 01:08:02.041
I said, "What, where?"
01:08:02.250 --> 01:08:04.667
They said, "There, on TV!"
I was like, damn!
01:08:05.917 --> 01:08:08.625
Doing those things at the factory.
I was like, damn!
01:08:08.917 --> 01:08:10.250
-You saw that?
-I did!
01:08:10.458 --> 01:08:12.417
I still haven't seen it.
01:08:16.583 --> 01:08:18.417
I didn't see the recording.
01:08:18.917 --> 01:08:20.417
-Was it any good?
-Yes, it was.
01:08:20.667 --> 01:08:22.250
Lots of people, right?
01:08:22.458 --> 01:08:25.291
One of these days,
the people from the factory authorized
01:08:25.500 --> 01:08:27.959
the minister to hold service,
and they invited us.
01:08:28.166 --> 01:08:29.208
In the factory?
01:08:29.375 --> 01:08:30.959
Inside the factory!
01:08:31.959 --> 01:08:35.417
The coordinators were like,
"No, we won't put our families at risk."
01:08:35.625 --> 01:08:39.708
God knows what they can do,
sabotage or something.
01:08:39.917 --> 01:08:45.250
Then we found out they were planning
on doing something to mess with us.
01:08:47.208 --> 01:08:51.667
These days I heard someone talking
about the eviction and stuff.
01:08:54.041 --> 01:08:56.208
How's that for you here?
01:08:57.083 --> 01:08:59.125
No, it's all good here.
01:09:00.708 --> 01:09:02.458
We're not too concerned about that.
01:09:02.750 --> 01:09:05.625
If there is an eviction injunction,
we'll just resist.
01:09:06.708 --> 01:09:10.333
But there's a lot to happen in the case,
there's an embargo in Goiania...
01:09:11.583 --> 01:09:15.625
There might be embargoes in Anapolis,
Rio Verde, or Jatai, or Catalao...
01:09:18.083 --> 01:09:19.500
If the case comes back here,
01:09:19.708 --> 01:09:22.417
the local judge will concede
yet another injunction...
01:09:23.208 --> 01:09:27.917
Then our lawyers will take it to the
Supreme Court and try to block it again.
01:09:28.333 --> 01:09:31.500
All I know is that we're going
to fight for many years ahead...
01:09:31.708 --> 01:09:32.750
-Hey, girl!
-Hi!
01:09:32.959 --> 01:09:34.291
-How are you?
-Good.
01:09:34.583 --> 01:09:36.959
I've missed you.
You came to see us!
01:09:37.208 --> 01:09:38.333
What can I do?
01:09:39.792 --> 01:09:41.959
I think it's time to have our meeting.
01:09:42.208 --> 01:09:44.250
Isn't it on Wednesdays and Thursdays?
01:09:44.500 --> 01:09:45.959
Wednesdays and Saturdays.
01:09:46.917 --> 01:09:48.000
Good ones.
01:09:48.208 --> 01:09:49.250
Very good.
01:09:49.417 --> 01:09:51.417
What do you talk about in the meetings?
01:09:52.667 --> 01:09:56.583
It's normal, like they used to be.
But it has changed a lot now, William.
01:09:57.083 --> 01:10:00.458
Because we used to talk
about everything, right? Like discipline...
01:10:00.750 --> 01:10:02.834
Yeah, discipline, religion, education...
01:10:03.041 --> 01:10:05.959
... food, coordination, health...
01:10:06.208 --> 01:10:07.208
Oh, he's funny!
01:10:07.417 --> 01:10:09.834
You know everything,
you have to come live here!
01:10:12.333 --> 01:10:14.208
Well, I've lived here for many years.
01:10:14.417 --> 01:10:15.792
We need activists!
01:10:17.041 --> 01:10:18.125
You know everything.
01:10:18.500 --> 01:10:21.041
He remembers, I thought he had
forgotten all that!
01:10:21.333 --> 01:10:23.542
Of course I do, how couldn't I?
01:10:25.041 --> 01:10:27.208
You can be the youth coordinator!
01:10:27.750 --> 01:10:31.500
How do you call that sector that'll be
added to the youth sector...?
01:10:32.875 --> 01:10:33.917
LB...LG...
01:10:34.166 --> 01:10:35.667
...LGBT.
01:10:36.041 --> 01:10:37.250
LGBT
01:10:37.625 --> 01:10:38.917
Yes, that's it.
01:10:42.750 --> 01:10:47.625
And that other boy asked him to join
the youth section and the LGBT group.
01:10:47.875 --> 01:10:49.542
Yes, Julio.
But he didn't want to.
01:10:49.834 --> 01:10:52.250
Julio, the one who he used to stay here.
01:10:52.417 --> 01:10:54.000
Sure, it would suit him!
01:10:54.583 --> 01:10:58.959
Travel somewhere for some training...
Maybe even abroad, right?
01:10:59.542 --> 01:11:01.125
No, but it's hard for me, dad.
01:11:01.333 --> 01:11:02.959
But you don't have to pay for it.
01:11:03.166 --> 01:11:06.792
The government will,
or maybe even the movement...
01:11:07.041 --> 01:11:09.500
But it's hard because of my job.
It's complicated.
01:11:12.834 --> 01:11:13.875
"My job"...
01:11:14.125 --> 01:11:18.792
I can find a job for you,
with a contract and all!
01:11:18.959 --> 01:11:21.208
I don't think I could
work with a contract...
01:11:21.417 --> 01:11:22.500
Why don't you do it?
01:11:26.125 --> 01:11:29.458
Take some free time
to work with a contract!
01:11:29.875 --> 01:11:33.500
But I already work,
there's so much on demand here.
01:11:34.166 --> 01:11:37.291
I'm self-employed, my friend!
I work for myself!
01:11:40.417 --> 01:11:42.291
I call him and I ask, hey,
01:11:42.500 --> 01:11:45.708
ain't you coming to the camp?
Then find some good work to do!
01:11:46.542 --> 01:11:47.959
I work every Monday, right?
01:11:48.542 --> 01:11:51.917
Then, they changed my work days,
01:11:52.125 --> 01:11:53.875
They wanted me to go on Saturdays.
01:11:54.083 --> 01:11:56.959
So I told the girl,
"Oh, no, I can't come on Saturdays."
01:11:57.208 --> 01:11:58.667
She said,
"Why, do you work?"
01:11:58.834 --> 01:12:00.500
I said,
"No, I go to the Landless."
01:12:00.625 --> 01:12:02.417
"Are you a member
of the Landless?!"
01:12:02.625 --> 01:12:05.917
I said, "Well, I have some friends there,
I like it so much, girl!"
01:12:06.125 --> 01:12:07.166
And what did she say?
01:12:07.375 --> 01:12:08.375
She said, "Really?"
01:12:08.583 --> 01:12:11.417
So I said, "I like it,
we drink coffee from the same cup,
01:12:11.583 --> 01:12:13.875
eat from the same plate,
share cigarettes..."
01:12:14.083 --> 01:12:18.125
"So on Saturdays I don't like to work,
I like to go to the camp."
01:12:19.125 --> 01:12:22.583
There's no need to mix things, right?
Involving work...
01:12:22.917 --> 01:12:24.625
There's a lot of prejudice, right?
01:12:24.792 --> 01:12:28.208
Society...
It ignores us.
01:12:28.458 --> 01:12:29.542
Yeah, it really does.
01:12:29.750 --> 01:12:32.834
I take it from Sorlane.
When she found out I was at the camp,
01:12:34.708 --> 01:12:39.250
she went to my place
and I told her, super happy,
01:12:39.458 --> 01:12:41.750
"Sorlane, I'm joining the Landless,
and so on."
01:12:42.250 --> 01:12:45.041
At the time I used to do manicure,
I quit to come here.
01:12:45.667 --> 01:12:50.667
She was like, "What the hell, Aline?"
I said, "I'm part of the Landless",
01:12:51.375 --> 01:12:54.708
"I registered and I'm part of it now.
I'll stay there, it's great."
01:12:54.917 --> 01:12:58.375
Then she looked straight in my face
and said,
01:12:59.375 --> 01:13:02.166
"God forbid, I don't even like
landless people!
01:13:02.375 --> 01:13:04.333
To me, our friendship ends right now!"
01:13:04.542 --> 01:13:06.750
I was like, "Wow, Sorlane,
are you serious?"
01:13:07.041 --> 01:13:09.792
She said, "Our friendship won't end
because I know you,
01:13:10.125 --> 01:13:12.542
but I hate the Landless."
I was like, "Alright."
01:13:12.750 --> 01:13:16.125
But since that day, we haven't talked,
I never reached out anymore.
01:13:17.083 --> 01:13:19.125
You could have asked,
"Do you own land?"
01:13:19.291 --> 01:13:20.500
Yeah.
01:13:20.708 --> 01:13:23.166
"No? So you are landless!
That's your identity."
01:13:24.166 --> 01:13:25.750
Isn't she ashamed to say that?
01:13:43.667 --> 01:13:44.834
This is heavy!
01:13:45.083 --> 01:13:46.250
Be careful there.
01:13:51.208 --> 01:13:53.291
That's it.
01:14:51.500 --> 01:14:53.917
DANGER AREA
01:14:59.041 --> 01:15:03.917
Dilma, I always build my tent on my own!
I build and rebuild it.
01:15:08.750 --> 01:15:12.083
This is what's left from
the tower we did in the mockup, right?
01:15:13.792 --> 01:15:16.208
-You did the mockup, right?
-Yeah.
01:15:16.417 --> 01:15:17.542
Go!
01:15:17.750 --> 01:15:19.125
It goes into the hole.
01:15:19.500 --> 01:15:20.625
Watch the hole there.
01:15:22.250 --> 01:15:23.458
Did it fall?
01:15:23.708 --> 01:15:25.375
-Help!
-Hold on!
01:15:27.208 --> 01:15:28.333
Right in my face!
01:15:31.583 --> 01:15:34.250
Hold on!
01:15:35.375 --> 01:15:37.208
Turn it around.
01:15:52.250 --> 01:15:56.333
It looked like a piece of steel,
like a can, you know?
01:15:57.542 --> 01:16:01.417
It passed real close to Micael,
and he started jumping and screaming.
01:16:03.417 --> 01:16:07.750
And I started laughing at him and said,
"Micael, come inside, leave it".
01:16:09.291 --> 01:16:10.667
Oh, my dear Lady!
01:16:12.166 --> 01:16:16.500
No joke, it was so close to him,
it could have hurt him.
01:16:16.708 --> 01:16:18.875
But it was nice, wasn't it?
The rain.
01:16:19.083 --> 01:16:20.291
God, no, I was scared!
01:16:20.500 --> 01:16:23.333
At first it was just wind,
but then it was actually rain!
01:16:25.125 --> 01:16:26.875
I saw it put down so many stalks...
01:16:27.458 --> 01:16:28.750
In my area, half was down.
01:16:29.083 --> 01:16:30.917
A tree fell right on my area.
01:16:31.417 --> 01:16:32.583
It cut my tent in half.
01:16:33.250 --> 01:16:35.875
I only noticed the tower
wasn't there the day after.
01:16:36.083 --> 01:16:38.583
At the entrance,
I was like, "Where's the tower?"
01:16:38.834 --> 01:16:41.166
So a comrade said,
"Didn't you see it falling?"
01:16:41.375 --> 01:16:44.000
And I said,
"No, I just noticed it's not standing."
01:16:44.250 --> 01:16:45.291
I also didn't notice.
01:16:45.500 --> 01:16:48.208
Then, I came this way
riding my bike.
01:16:48.375 --> 01:16:51.417
It was that day I went
to the house of the minister's sister.
01:16:51.625 --> 01:16:54.792
That's when I saw it on the ground,
and thought, "That's weird".
01:16:55.542 --> 01:16:58.959
And my tent had totally fallen down.
01:17:00.333 --> 01:17:02.542
I looked at those trees
in front of my tent,
01:17:02.750 --> 01:17:05.333
some of them were twisting with the wind,
like this!
01:17:06.375 --> 01:17:08.166
I was so scared
my tent would fall.
01:17:08.375 --> 01:17:09.834
And imagine the wind, girl...
01:17:10.083 --> 01:17:13.125
Yes, some people's canvas fell,
the flags were gone,
01:17:13.458 --> 01:17:17.375
some tents were gone like this,
with the wood and all!
01:17:17.792 --> 01:17:19.375
Mine too.
01:17:20.417 --> 01:17:23.208
I almost thought I'd be gone with my tent,
but I wasn't!
01:17:31.750 --> 01:17:34.500
-But it took a lot of things away!
-It did.
01:17:34.708 --> 01:17:35.917
It did a lot of damage.
01:17:36.125 --> 01:17:37.208
It ripped things off.
01:17:37.417 --> 01:17:40.166
It's all part of life.
01:17:46.750 --> 01:17:48.792
What do you plan on doing there, Bento?
01:17:52.291 --> 01:17:54.959
I'm marking it,
then I'll go down and you can cut it.
01:17:59.750 --> 01:18:01.959
I think it's gonna be good now, minister...
01:18:02.208 --> 01:18:03.291
Yeah...
01:18:05.834 --> 01:18:08.208
Anyway, we won't take shifts here
anytime soon.
01:18:14.041 --> 01:18:15.417
That one just eats!
01:18:17.500 --> 01:18:19.917
Just sharpening his teeth on the canebrake!
01:18:20.750 --> 01:18:22.458
-That one likes it, huh?
-He does.
01:18:33.375 --> 01:18:34.834
I was saying, Grandma,
01:18:35.083 --> 01:18:37.500
I left the factory
and walked down the avenue.
01:18:38.125 --> 01:18:39.667
Then I see a bunch of people.
01:18:40.333 --> 01:18:42.125
I was like,
"Man, has someone died?
01:18:45.041 --> 01:18:47.542
Then I saw some comrades
and asked them,
01:18:47.750 --> 01:18:49.583
"What's going on?
Has someone died?"
01:18:49.792 --> 01:18:52.458
And they said,
"No, it's just the Landless movement!"
01:18:52.667 --> 01:18:54.417
And I was like,
"What is that?"
01:18:54.583 --> 01:18:56.542
It was right when Lula
won the election.
01:18:57.959 --> 01:19:00.750
So... They explained they were making
some registrations
01:19:00.959 --> 01:19:03.333
for people wanting
to fight for a piece of land.
01:19:03.542 --> 01:19:06.375
They were registering people
to occupy a certain area.
01:19:06.875 --> 01:19:10.083
They asked, "Aren't you interested?"
So I was like, "Yes, okay."
01:19:10.333 --> 01:19:11.875
Then I went in,
01:19:12.083 --> 01:19:16.834
where the coordinators were doing
grassroots work and registering people.
01:19:17.041 --> 01:19:19.959
So I registered, and they said when
the meetings would be.
01:19:20.166 --> 01:19:21.583
There were three meetings.
01:19:21.792 --> 01:19:24.959
They were doing grassroots
work with 680 families.
01:19:26.125 --> 01:19:30.458
So I turned to Clara and said
"I'm joining the Landless Workers!"
01:19:30.667 --> 01:19:33.041
"Are you crazy, join the Landless?"
01:19:33.250 --> 01:19:35.208
I had quit my job in the factory,
01:19:35.375 --> 01:19:37.917
and she was like,
"But what about next year?"
01:19:38.083 --> 01:19:40.250
Well, next year,
we'll be with the Landless,
01:19:40.458 --> 01:19:43.000
We'll grab a land.
And she was like, okay.
01:19:43.250 --> 01:19:45.625
Oh, we have an illusion
that it's gonna be fast!
01:19:45.834 --> 01:19:51.959
Then, on February 23, 2003...
01:19:52.125 --> 01:19:53.125
Yes, that's right.
01:19:55.333 --> 01:19:57.625
... we were there occupying.
01:19:57.834 --> 01:20:02.166
I said bye to Clara and left.
I didn't even know where!
01:20:03.625 --> 01:20:07.583
The road was full of cars, and they stopped
near the asphalt road.
01:20:07.792 --> 01:20:12.125
I only heard the fireworks, pow, pow!
Let's go!
01:20:12.333 --> 01:20:16.333
Everyone in the cars, one after the other
towards Rio Verde, and so we went...
01:20:16.542 --> 01:20:18.834
I was thinking to myself,
"God, where is it?"
01:20:19.041 --> 01:20:21.333
There was some booze,
so we had some.
01:20:22.375 --> 01:20:26.083
And we arrived at the place.
We stopped at the road,
01:20:26.250 --> 01:20:27.834
just like here, at the highway,
01:20:28.041 --> 01:20:31.291
some people
already got into the farm.
01:20:32.250 --> 01:20:34.417
The grass was this tall!
01:20:35.542 --> 01:20:38.667
And the guy comes in with the truck,
pressing, and pressing...
01:20:38.834 --> 01:20:41.333
There was an incredible wall of grass
in that farm!
01:20:42.750 --> 01:20:44.834
There were so many trucks.
01:20:52.542 --> 01:20:56.291
Then I was like, "Man, it's a jungle!
We won't be able to clean this!"
01:20:56.500 --> 01:20:58.125
He said, "Yes, we will!
01:20:58.333 --> 01:21:01.000
Then we started to organize,
we had our hoes and all.
01:21:02.125 --> 01:21:04.458
Some went to sleep,
some started building tents,
01:21:04.667 --> 01:21:06.959
all in the dark, no flashlights.
01:21:07.417 --> 01:21:12.000
So we improvised a bonfire,
and we started working during the night.
01:21:12.208 --> 01:21:15.166
All you could hear
was the sound of the hammers.
01:21:16.667 --> 01:21:21.542
I'm new in this occupation thing,
but I have been through so much...
01:21:21.750 --> 01:21:23.208
A lot.
01:21:24.500 --> 01:21:30.917
When we left the Ema farm,
after the 48-hour period,
01:21:31.125 --> 01:21:35.083
we were told to go back,
"Pack your stuff"!
01:21:38.375 --> 01:21:39.667
When we arrived...
01:21:41.834 --> 01:21:43.500
That day, P.C...
01:21:43.708 --> 01:21:48.125
I thought I couldn't manage...
01:21:49.083 --> 01:21:50.166
It wrecks us, right?
01:21:50.375 --> 01:21:52.333
No! Wrecks us?
01:21:52.500 --> 01:21:57.625
I don't know what got into me,
it must have been a crazy impulse!
01:22:02.417 --> 01:22:06.041
Then the boy turned on the sound
as loud as possible.
01:22:07.250 --> 01:22:09.250
And lots of people,
because at Ema,
01:22:09.458 --> 01:22:11.708
there used to be
like 3,000 people,
01:22:12.000 --> 01:22:15.041
700 were living there.
01:22:16.917 --> 01:22:18.166
Yes, a lot of people.
01:22:20.542 --> 01:22:23.250
He turned that volume up,
01:22:25.667 --> 01:22:30.125
and I was drinking...
At the time I was a big drinker, huh?
01:22:33.041 --> 01:22:39.458
I said, "Josias,
isn't that the police's headlight?"
01:22:39.667 --> 01:22:41.000
He said, "Yeah it is".
01:22:41.875 --> 01:22:44.000
He just whistled.
01:22:45.208 --> 01:22:48.458
I never saw so many men
coming out of those bushes,
01:22:48.667 --> 01:22:50.125
just like monkeys!
01:22:51.708 --> 01:22:53.166
And the police came.
01:22:54.041 --> 01:22:55.166
Just one car?
01:22:55.333 --> 01:22:56.542
One?!
01:22:57.083 --> 01:23:00.708
They don't come with only one car!
01:26:12.583 --> 01:26:15.458
Jose Reginaldo, Jose Wellington,
01:26:15.625 --> 01:26:18.667
Lucas Leonardo, Manoel Santana,
01:26:18.834 --> 01:26:22.041
Marcela Alves, Marcio Gomes,
01:26:22.208 --> 01:26:24.792
Maria Aparecida, Maria Helena,
01:26:26.041 --> 01:26:29.417
Thiago Caetano, Wanderlei Barbosa.
01:26:29.583 --> 01:26:30.583
Did I miss anyone?
01:26:32.417 --> 01:26:37.041
Our journey's motto from now on is:
01:26:37.208 --> 01:26:41.041
"Crooks, give our lands back ".
01:26:41.417 --> 01:26:46.041
And where we're going,
there are other people like us,
01:26:46.250 --> 01:26:48.500
from other parts of our region.
01:26:48.708 --> 01:26:53.667
It's important that this works
as a formative moment,
01:26:55.000 --> 01:26:56.959
to share our experiences,
01:26:57.166 --> 01:26:59.959
to find out how the Landless groups
work in other states,
01:27:00.250 --> 01:27:01.708
how they organize themselves,
01:27:01.917 --> 01:27:04.917
how the camps
and the struggle for land are going.
01:27:05.792 --> 01:27:09.875
We'll stay together.
We'll interact in all possible ways,
01:27:10.041 --> 01:27:11.834
but we have to stick together
01:27:12.041 --> 01:27:17.625
and pay attention to something called
information security.
01:27:18.000 --> 01:27:22.667
So all those phones ringing right now,
with which we're talking to other people,
01:27:22.917 --> 01:27:26.667
we won't post selfies
saying, "Look, we're here, and so on."
01:27:27.083 --> 01:27:29.375
Because our action has been organized
01:27:29.708 --> 01:27:36.583
and we have a team responsible
for creating those posts and images,
01:27:37.291 --> 01:27:40.041
and we'll be able to make them go viral
anyway we want.
01:27:40.250 --> 01:27:44.583
So, starting now,
we'll stop using our phones.
01:27:44.792 --> 01:27:48.208
The ones who'll keep their phones on
are those we'll communicate with
01:27:48.417 --> 01:27:54.583
about the gathering points
and the arrival situation.
01:27:54.792 --> 01:27:58.500
Tomorrow, again,
we'll protect our militants.
01:27:58.708 --> 01:28:01.333
It's a hostile environment.
01:28:01.542 --> 01:28:08.000
With the coup right now, we know that
we're getting involved with mean
01:28:08.208 --> 01:28:11.792
and extremely conservative people.
01:28:12.000 --> 01:28:17.667
So we have to protect our security
as individuals and also as a group,
01:28:17.875 --> 01:28:20.333
and the information spread from now on.
01:28:20.542 --> 01:28:24.166
So let's avoid talking about
what we don't know or haven't seen,
01:28:24.375 --> 01:28:26.250
and let's stick together.
01:28:26.458 --> 01:28:27.500
That's it.
01:28:27.708 --> 01:28:28.834
Free homeland!
01:28:29.000 --> 01:28:30.083
We'll win!
01:28:30.291 --> 01:28:31.375
Free homeland!
01:28:31.583 --> 01:28:32.625
We'll win!
01:28:32.834 --> 01:28:33.959
Once again!
01:28:34.208 --> 01:28:35.208
Free homeland!
01:28:35.417 --> 01:28:36.458
We'll win!
01:28:36.708 --> 01:28:38.166
Keep it down!
01:29:15.834 --> 01:29:16.959
Go under it!
01:29:20.750 --> 01:29:22.041
You can pass through here.
01:29:24.417 --> 01:29:26.792
Careful, people are passing under it.
01:29:59.875 --> 01:30:02.500
We'll manage to stop agribusiness
here in Mato Grosso.
01:30:02.708 --> 01:30:04.083
Even if it's just a little.
01:30:04.250 --> 01:30:06.834
All the grain goes through here,
and petroleum too.
01:30:07.083 --> 01:30:09.375
Really?
So it won't pass over...
01:30:09.583 --> 01:30:11.500
Petroleum and grains, right?
01:30:14.125 --> 01:30:15.417
It'll send a good message.
01:31:40.834 --> 01:31:43.375
This is to send a message
to those crooks in power!
01:31:43.583 --> 01:31:47.417
We're not playing camp here!
The people want land to work!
01:31:47.708 --> 01:31:50.458
And that shameless man
has all this land all to himself!
01:31:52.166 --> 01:31:53.959
And they don't pay any damn taxes.
01:31:55.959 --> 01:31:58.667
And we are here,
fighting for our rights.
01:32:02.458 --> 01:32:05.667
RAILROAD CROSSING
STOP, LOOK AND LISTEN
01:32:50.291 --> 01:32:52.542
AGROBUSINESS IS GENOCIDAL
01:33:25.458 --> 01:33:26.959
Landless!
01:33:32.000 --> 01:33:34.000
Free homeland!
01:33:34.208 --> 01:33:35.166
We will win!
01:33:35.667 --> 01:33:37.875
Free homeland!
01:33:38.083 --> 01:33:39.417
We will win!
01:33:39.625 --> 01:33:40.625
Free homeland!
01:33:40.834 --> 01:33:42.792
We will win!
01:33:43.000 --> 01:33:45.166
Rebellion is necessary!
01:33:45.375 --> 01:33:47.208
To do the land reform!
01:33:47.417 --> 01:33:49.458
Rebellion is necessary!
01:33:49.667 --> 01:33:51.750
To do the land reform!
01:33:58.875 --> 01:34:01.333
They killed Che,
but they didn't kill his legacy!
01:34:01.542 --> 01:34:03.625
The Landless Movement
grows every minute!
01:34:04.166 --> 01:34:05.917
Landless!
01:34:08.083 --> 01:34:10.125
Land reform when?
01:34:10.291 --> 01:34:11.875
Right now!
01:34:12.083 --> 01:34:13.083
Fight!
01:34:13.291 --> 01:34:16.125
Do the land reform for real!
01:34:16.542 --> 01:34:17.667
Fight!
01:34:17.834 --> 01:34:19.291
Do the land reform for real!
01:34:19.583 --> 01:34:21.542
Excuse me, please,
can I have a word?
01:34:21.750 --> 01:34:26.708
What time did you arrive?
How was the invasion of this property?
01:34:28.041 --> 01:34:31.625
Actually, it's not an invasion,
it's a land occupation.
01:34:32.000 --> 01:34:34.417
We have arrived here
around 5:30 am.
01:34:34.917 --> 01:34:37.583
How many families
arrived here?
01:34:37.792 --> 01:34:39.875
Around 500.
01:34:40.041 --> 01:34:41.125
-500 families?
-Yes.
01:34:41.583 --> 01:34:44.708
What are these families demanding?
01:34:44.875 --> 01:34:46.917
The goal of this occupation
01:34:47.166 --> 01:34:51.083
is to denounce everything
that's happening in our country.
01:34:51.291 --> 01:34:54.000
-Are we allowed to get in?
-No.
01:34:54.250 --> 01:34:55.917
-We can't get in?
-No, you can't.
01:34:56.750 --> 01:34:57.917
Only until this point?
01:34:58.166 --> 01:34:59.875
It's for our own security.
01:35:00.708 --> 01:35:03.000
Not even to show the movement
a little better?
01:35:03.208 --> 01:35:07.959
No, not now, maybe in the afternoon,
tomorrow, but not today.
01:35:08.166 --> 01:35:10.917
How long do you intend to stay here?
01:35:11.125 --> 01:35:15.792
It depends on how much dialogue
we can have with them.
01:35:16.000 --> 01:35:21.417
So, these are concerns
that are being presented by these people.
01:35:21.625 --> 01:35:26.875
There are around 500 people here,
according to the movement.
01:35:27.041 --> 01:35:30.125
They occupy this property,
01:35:30.333 --> 01:35:34.750
owned by the Minister of Agriculture,
Blairo Maggi.
01:35:35.250 --> 01:35:42.083
They present critical opinions
on the current situation of our country,
01:35:42.291 --> 01:35:46.625
which they put into words of protest.
01:35:46.834 --> 01:35:49.166
Let's hear the families.
01:35:49.375 --> 01:35:51.208
This struggle is for real!
01:35:51.375 --> 01:35:54.750
This struggle is for real!
01:36:01.166 --> 01:36:03.667
So this is part of the national movement,
right?
01:36:03.875 --> 01:36:09.125
Yes, it's part of the national Landless
Workers' Movement and La Via Campesina.
01:36:09.291 --> 01:36:12.625
And you're here today because
it's the Rural Producers Day, right?
01:36:12.834 --> 01:36:17.542
Yes, it's the Rural Producers Day,
so we decided to do this land occupation,
01:36:17.708 --> 01:36:24.708
so we can establish the agrarian matter
from a general point of view,
01:36:24.917 --> 01:36:28.667
and most of all we want
to denounce this situation, right?
01:36:28.875 --> 01:36:31.625
All the law reforms happening
in our country right now,
01:36:31.834 --> 01:36:36.125
this sort of sweep kick they are doing
and what our workers are suffering.
01:36:36.500 --> 01:36:43.417
At the same time, we chose Blairo Maggi,
the current Minister of Agriculture,
01:36:44.000 --> 01:36:46.834
and also a senator.
01:36:47.041 --> 01:36:50.875
In this state,
he owns many properties,
01:36:51.041 --> 01:36:53.834
and he is also one
of the largest soybean producers.
01:36:54.041 --> 01:36:57.917
So we keep seeing
the countryside being destroyed,
01:36:58.125 --> 01:37:00.333
poison and agrichemicals all around,
01:37:00.500 --> 01:37:07.083
and to seek equality in Mato Grosso now
is to seek agrarian reform.
01:37:07.291 --> 01:37:09.667
Because land is a source of power.
01:37:09.875 --> 01:37:11.583
This is how we see agrarian issue,
01:37:11.792 --> 01:37:14.875
and this is why these people
believe in the Landless Movement,
01:37:15.083 --> 01:37:19.166
and fight for agrarian reform.
01:37:19.333 --> 01:37:22.166
This is the spot that leads to the railroad
01:37:22.375 --> 01:37:26.834
that has been blocked
by members of the Landless Movement,
01:37:27.000 --> 01:37:29.417
this morning in Rodonopolis.
01:37:29.625 --> 01:37:31.792
When I tried to get closer
to the entrance,
01:37:32.000 --> 01:37:36.083
I was intimidated and even threatened
by the members of the Landless Movement.
01:37:36.291 --> 01:37:39.208
They had batons and wood sticks.
01:37:39.375 --> 01:37:42.792
What that lady is holding
is a kind of baton,
01:37:43.000 --> 01:37:47.917
and she is there as a sort of guard
to watch the farm's entrance.
01:37:48.125 --> 01:37:51.750
I am asking, my company is asking,
for the repossession,
01:37:51.959 --> 01:37:53.542
according to the law.
01:37:53.750 --> 01:37:55.708
I won't do anything arbitrary.
01:37:55.917 --> 01:37:57.750
But it is a shame, really.
01:37:57.959 --> 01:38:02.291
We got a call this morning with information
that these invaders were here.
01:38:03.208 --> 01:38:08.208
We came right away
and talked to the leaders,
01:38:08.417 --> 01:38:12.417
to keep everything in order
and avoid using violence.
01:38:13.041 --> 01:38:15.041
I hope that when they get
what they want,
01:38:15.250 --> 01:38:18.959
which is to draw the media's attention
to the problems they say they have,
01:38:19.166 --> 01:38:22.750
they leave and let the families
who work at the factory and the property
01:38:22.959 --> 01:38:24.000
go back to normal.
01:44:12.500 --> 01:44:15.959
Brazil is the fifth most unequal country
in terms of access to land.
01:44:16.208 --> 01:44:19.625
Only 1% of rural properties concentrate
about 45% of all arable land.
01:44:19.834 --> 01:44:23.583
Most of it is occupied by agrobusiness,
and many areas remain unproductive.
01:44:23.792 --> 01:44:30.083
Despite being responsible for over 70% of food production in Brazil,
family agriculture occupies a small part of the territory.
01:44:30.458 --> 01:44:36.583
Since it was founded in 1984, the Landless Workers' Movement (MST),
one of the largest popular movements in Latin America,
01:44:36.875 --> 01:44:39.834
has contributed to the settlement
of over 350,000 families.
01:44:42.291 --> 01:44:46.667
By the time this film was finished, there had been
no progress in the Santa Helena case.
01:44:46.959 --> 01:44:49.917
On December 2018,
two members of the Leonir Orbak occupation
01:44:50.125 --> 01:44:53.542
were sentenced to 7 and 14 years in prison,
on charges of conspiracy.
01:44:53.750 --> 01:44:54.917
The occupation resists.
01:44:56.083 --> 01:44:59.000
Elected president in 2018,
former serviceman Jair Bolsonaro
01:44:59.208 --> 01:45:03.750
promised to facilitate access to heavy weaponry,
for big landowners to fight the landless.
01:45:03.959 --> 01:45:08.834
With support of the "beef" and "bullet" caucus in Congress,
Bolsonaro promised to end all activism
01:45:09.041 --> 01:45:11.917
and define protests for land and housing as terrorism.
01:45:12.125 --> 01:45:14.125
Among his first measures as president,
01:45:14.417 --> 01:45:21.000
he transferred the National Institute for Agrarian Reform (INCRA)
to the Ministry of Agriculture, led by the large landowners' lobby,
01:45:21.208 --> 01:45:24.166
and issued a decree
facilitating the purchase of weapons.
01:45:24.375 --> 01:45:29.375
Since 1985, the Pastoral Land Commission has recorded
almost 2,000 deaths in land-related conflicts.
01:45:29.542 --> 01:45:32.500
More than 120,000 families
live in Landless settlements today.
01:45:32.708 --> 01:45:34.792
This film is dedicated to them.
