Description
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 (White Wing)." This beautifully produced film brilliantly captures the feel of Brazilian life in the 1940s with musical performances, archival footage, and lively conversations.
