Englisch A scientific autopsy of a human being, at the end of which is a living person; the appearance of ironically detached structuralist methods of dissecting a human and a country only into their objective system of relationships leads to a glimpse of the flourishing of humanism - a flower extracted from a child's head crushed by a bulldozer. A glimpse and fulfillment of experimental structural film of the 1960s to the 1970s: If, in May 1968, at the student barricades in Paris, there was a chant to overthrow capitalism, saying that "structures do not march in the streets" (les structures ne marchent pas dans les rues), then in this Brazilian short film masterpiece, it actually happened – a film based on a cold structure created a human teeming with life and freedom. So that he could be killed. So that we could all kill him. ()
