This was a pretty good Brazilian movie from the 1960s that I watched on youtube. It's about a simple man who carries a cross all the way to the church. It was a promise he made if his donkey was saved. But the church won't let him the cross into the church. They proclaim his story about he got the miracle evil. Along with the hypocrises of the church he also finds the media more than ready to make a dime off the story of this simple man. I wonder how this film got forgotten over time. It was nominated for an Academy award but I guess some treasures get buried in time.
