The Welles Raft

Original title: A Jangada de Welles

“A documentary about Orson Welles days in Brazil in 1942.”

The raft man Manuel Jacaré was swallowed by the sea when Orson Welles was filming It's All True in 1942. The fact evokes memories of the dictatorship of the Estado Novo, of World War II, of Ceará fishermen's struggle for labor rights and housing in their traditional space - target of real estate speculation.
