1941 · Documentary
A film based on a poem by Cassiano Ricardo that described the city of São Paulo with its factories, houses, streetcars, lights, life, etc.; a young woman recited the poem while the images showed what she was saying. "Canto da Raça" was never even shown; Getúlio Vargas ordered the censors to seize it on charges of "parochialism." The film was burned; not even the negative survived; everything was burned.
