Bye Bye Brasil

Bye Bye Brazil

1979

The Caravana Rolidei rolls into town with the Gypsy Lord at the mike: he does magic tricks, the erotic Salomé dances, and the mute Swallow performs feats of strength. A young accordion player is completely enamored of Salomé, and he begs to come along. The Gypsy Lord shrugs, and the accordionist and his pregnant wife, Dasdô, join the troupe. Television is their enemy as they go from the coast deep into the Amazon. Salomé lets the accordionist sleep with her once, with Dasdô's knowledge. He's moon-struck. Then, after Dasdô's baby is born and financial disaster hits the troupe, the accordionist must choose between seeing his wife a prostitute and leaving the caravan. (Cine Latinoamericano)

Salomé (Betty Faria), Lorde Cigano (José Wilker) e Andorinha são três artistas ambulantes que cruzam o país juntamente com a Caravana Rolidei, fazendo espetáculos para o setor mais humilde da população brasileira e que ainda não tem acesso à televisão. A eles se juntam o sanfoneiro Ciço (Fábio Jr.) e sua esposa, Dasdô (Zaira Zambelli), e a Caravana cruza a Amazônia até chegar a Brasília. (Adoro Cinema)
