In period pre-colonial circa 1570 the Portuguese crown send to Brazil several orphans girls raised in the nunnery, the large majority composed by underage girls, they were offer for a best bid by a Priest to wealthy old farmers at this time, mostly with lewd behavior, one of them the shy Oriebela (Simone Spoladore) who was trade by two cows only by the older rough Francisco de Albuquerque (Osmar Prado) which forced a sexual intercourse still on the port's lodge to the dismay of the virgin girl.

After a long journey on narrow trails at forest they reach in the Francisco's farmer where all labors were made by slaves Indians, trading by Ximeno Dias (Caco Ciocler) who often captures them with others opposite tribes, meanwhile Oriebela has been mistreated by his crude husband, that ends up running away to the shore seeking for Galleon to take her back to Portugal, Oriebela has been rescued in time to be raped at beach, back on the farmer she stays being held captive upon chains for weeks or so, after the release she became meek for a while, turns back fleeing to nearby small village seeking shelter at Ximeno's house, even reluctantly the j.e.w.s.h Ximeno nourishes a sexual desire over the beauty woman, fostering himself hidden Oriebela at his secret cellar for a while.

In the meantime Francisco is looking everywhere and recover his mule whereof Oriebela escapes, then he figures out that she was around in some hideout provides by someone else closed him, worst the new couple Oriebela and Ximeno end up involving in sexually, upon the siege of Francisco they planning together got a Spanish Galleon to flee back into the Portugal Kingdom.

Desmundo is a fictitious book, however the writer based of course in something alike in those past time, commonly feasible in this bleak era, also expose a very possible in.ce.tuous relationship between Francisco and old mother where the picture quite sure implied to the less tipped off, a real portrait of those foggy days the unvarnished true, also spoke in ancient Portuguese languague a true Gem of the battered Brazilian cinema, at last a priceless one!!

Thanks for reading.
