Aruanda

In the period of the slavery, the runaway slaves formed communities called "Quilombos", a kind of sanctuary and piece of resistance. "Aruanda" exposes the "Quilombo Olho d＇Água da Serra do Talhado", em Santana do Sabugi, Paraíba, with people living a primitive life and completely isolated from the Republic of Brazil of the 60＇s. The tough life of the dwellers is pictured in this documentary through the character of Zé Bento. The place, inhabited by former slaves, is very poor but people do not forget their roots.
