An inventory of the genesis, eruption and resonance of The Age of the Earth (1980), by Glauber Rocha. With unedited scenes extracted from the sixty hours found of the gross material, it is more than a tribute or a historical report. Narrated in the first person by Glauber’s voices: he exposes himself entirely, light-years ahead of the times, he invents a keen cinematic narrative which 30 years after is finally assimilated by the new generations.
