The documentary is as engaging as a mass: well, if you do not love masses, you will not like it just as I did not.... Edition is quite cheesy, and music score tries desperately to touch but fails embarrassingly. The scenes with actors staging seem a soap opera from a cheap TV channel. Do not expect a deep historical or anthropological approach, as there is basically priests' view in the film. There is some interesting black and white footage which has been taken from a short film produced from 1969 to 1979, that was directed by other filmmakers, Otacílio Cartaxo and Machado Bitencourt. The only really important moments in this feature movie, in my opinion, which, deviate from other interviews and are not in the mood of the rest of the documentary, are the ones with priest Evilásio Medeiros's explanations about Fray Damian's style of preaching. He explains that considering his complex theological speeches and strong Italian accent, it was probable that most believers followed him because of his presence and charisma and not due what he said. Eventually, he adds that his moralist dated sermon was particularly efficient in reaching men's faith (and there were moments when he received only male believers). He also says that Damian was "an ecclesial man" for whom "everything was a sin". As a matter of fact, there is one more single interviewee, priest Rinaldo Pereira, who mentions that Damian has been considered retrograde by many clergymen after Second Vatican Council, but defends him by saying that "saints always win" and the church changed its mind about him, who, "through that way, had been responsible for keeping people's faith". Indeed, many testimonies guided by wonder just cause great discomfort and strangeness for spectators who do not share those priests' views ans religiousness. Perhaps the most interesting truth is revealed between the lines. Anyway, to resume, the movie is bad and boring and I do not recommend it.
