Brazil – a beautiful, exotic and diverse country. It’s hot there, people are very hospitable. An ideal place for holiday. But that's just a stereotypical, European way of thinking. Jose Padilha shows a completely different face of this country. With his crew he reaches places that would never appear in tourist leaflets and brochures. You get an impression that it's not only a different country, but a completely different world. In Ceara state ‘garapa’ - a mixture of sugar and water - is often the only nourishment that people receive during a day. For four weeks Padilha observed the world in which hunger is the only sure thing. He forces us to notice the things we’d prefer not to see. As he said, he wants to give his viewers the possibility to understand the problem of hunger by meeting three families that are fighting with the lack of food and trying to survive. The film was presented during Berlinale 2009 and provoked discussions among the audience. The audience in Kazimierz will also have a chance to discuss it- after the screening of the film, there will be a meeting with Janina Ochojska in Empik Cafe.
