In 2012, Music According to Tom Jobim was screened during a tribute session dedicated to The filmmaker.
Directed by Aída Marques and Ivelise Ferreira, Nelson Pereira dos Santos “A Life of Cinema” shows us the man behind the camera. Through his legacy it is possible to ser all the richness of Brazilian culture reflected.
