Recorded in 1973, during the laborious attempt to issue his first album, one of Belchior's various appearances was in the TV Cultura's intimate program "MPB Especial". In it, a still very young, open and relatively angry Belchior (as in the testimonial seen at the end of the program) presented himself to the public through an autobiographical dialogue, proving that the new always comes.
The documentary takes Belchior’s famous 1976 album as a starting point to construct a chronicle of 1970s Brazil—a time defined by a generation that sought to change the world but was ultimately cut down by dictatorships or co-opted by money.
Antonio Carlos Gomes Belchior Fontenelle Fernandes, or simply Belchior, in a self-portrait that plunges into the wild heart of the poet, singer and composer from Ceará, Brazil who, with his work and his cutting ideas, marked and still marks the lives of so many people.
A host of personalities reminisce about the life and work of songwriter, lawyer, and congressman Humberto Teixeira — aka "Baião Doctor" — the author of such classic Brazilian popular songs as "Asa Branca". A musical film about the baião, a movement in Brazilian music in the 1940s and 1950s that was later snowed under by samba and bossa nova.
The documentary addresses the project, which took 30 years to complete, about the recording of 44 songs created for each poem in Mensagem, one of Fernando Pessoa's most emblematic books.
Belchior through comments narrates the paths of his life.
