In 1999 Lucia Murat wrote, produced and directed the feature film \"Brave New Land\u201d where the Kadiw\u00e9u people \u2013 native Brazilian Indians who live in the West of Brazil \u2013 were characters. \u201cThe Nation That Didn\u2019t Wait For God\u201d is a documentary shot in 2013\/2014 about this same tribe, by the same director, co-directed by Rodrigo Hinrichsen, the assistant director of \u201cBrave New Land\u201d.<\/p>\n

Throughout these 15 years, electricity has arrived to the reservation and with it so did television, soap operas, etc. Five protestant churches were settled in their village, and all of them have Kadiw\u00e9u pastors. But in keeping with their warrior tradition, they have gone back to fighting for their land that the white cattle breeder men have invaded.<\/p>\n

This documentary shows us the different paths that the Kadiw\u00e9u tribe has taken.<\/p>\n

Statement<\/h4>\n

The Kadiw\u00e9u people were studied by the anthropologist Levi Strauss and Darcy Ribeiro during the 30\u2019s. So during the production of \u201cBrave New Land\u201d we had a great deal of iconographic material from the \u201cwhite world\u201d that was very useful. Levi Strauss once said that it was a privilege to have access to another culture. That was exactly how I felt in 1999 when I finished shooting \u201cBrave New Land\u201d, and it was because of that feeling that I never again became disconnected to the tribe. I kept track of the transformations that occurred in the tribe throughout the years, as well as the individual transformations of those \u201ccharacters\u201d that we got to know the most. That is how I came to see a little indian boy become a \u201cwhite\u201d man living in the city, and a young timid boy become a charismatic important leader at the reservation.<\/p>\n

The meeting that we shot between the Kadiw\u00e9u leaders and the cattle headers representatives was about the division of land issue. These meetings were very revealing not only relatively to the current Kadiw\u00e9u situation, but also in a way that exposes the prejudices that accumulated due to, and ever since, the white imposed colonization.<\/p>\n

What makes this project unique is the fact that we shot it in 3 different moments in time throughout 17 years. This permitted us to accompany this tribe\u2019s story during a period of great transformations, when the contact with the white man culture intensified. The film \u201cBrave New Land\u201d gave us a view of the XVIII century history of the tribe, as well. It was based on cross-references between the stories told by the older tribe members, and white man literature on the subject.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
