    Ironically enough, quite frantic and, well, lively for an improvised short-doc about a burial.
    Fun(eral)facts:

    "This short/documentary is banned by Brazilian Justice, at the request of Di Cavalcanti's family. They say that Glauber wasn't respectful enough and turned Di's funeral into a carnival party.

    On a simple twist of fate, Glauber Rocha's own funeral was also made into a film that was banned for years by his family, scenes present in the documentary Glauber o Filme, Labirinto do Brasil (2003)."
