Lula, the Son of Brazil Page #7

So, now we will be going

home, may God be with us.

Have a nice Sunday,

but don't forget...

we will stop, but let's stop

united, let's stop together!

Together!

The freedom sun

in shining rays

Shined on the sky of the homeland

in this moment

If the pledge...

Now everything is elapsing

in the most porfect order...

at the exit, in march,

thousands of workers...

were surprised by

the violent repression of the policemen.

Before he could leave

the stadium...

Lula was sourrounded by journalists.

The minister of Work

declared that there...

the syndicate was precipitated...

Did you hope that he will declare

something else?

They have to declare this.

What is the position of the syndicate?

The syndicate is on the workers side,

always.

It's Lula! It's Lula, mom!

And you didn't tell me anything?

I wanted that he

had a profession, right?

I didn't know that they will talk

about him like this.

I am sorry to say this, but the governator

doesn't know what he says.

Mom, take it, You have to eat,

don't you want to have lunch anymore.

It's ok, darling, leave it there.

Leave it there, leave it there!!

It's hot in here.

-Where is mom?

-She's in there.

Luis!

Come here, let me look at you.

Did they hurt you?

You never change, right, mom?

In a time like this...

and you are still worried with me?

-Take me home.

-Calm down, mom...

you need to rest,

they will only run some tests.

I don't want to.

Look, all i want...

is a decent burial,

that's all, my son.

Can you stop with this, ok?

It will happen, my son.

Some time it will happen...

but everything will be fine.

I am so proud of you.

Are you scared, are you?

Scared?

I am not, no...

Look, my son...

don't doubt yourself.

You got so far already.

Look, we always do

what we can do.

Even when it's not enought,

you know what to do...

Go there and do it.

But, if it's not possible...

Hope, ok?

Be patient.

The world is rotating, rotating...

The opportunity will stop

right in your hands.

that's how it is.

the impasse between the metallurgical

workers from ABC...

and their employers is getting

every time bigger proportions.

Without permission, the leaders of the

syndicate and other operators...

are camped in the

building of the syndicate.

To assure public order,

the brazilian govern...

sent a strong military team

to surround the building...

to persuade the workers to

return to normality.

I'll be back soon, Mr. Alvaro.

He recognizes you, see, Luis lnacio?

I didn't bring you just

clothes to change, no.

Here! I made a little snack too.

We are there suffering

a terrible pressure!

Our syndicate is sorrounded

by armoured vehicles!

A lot of militaries are watching

our syndicate!

New information directly from

Sao Bernardo do Campo.

The demands made by

the syndicate of the metallurgits...

continue being denied...

and the workers don't show any sign

that they plan to give up.

That's why, the millitary pressure

is increasing...

and the impasse is worring more and more

the brazilian society.

They are there, they will invade

any moment now, damn it!

Attention, we have orders

to evacuate the building!

People, listen,

i know that it is difficult, but...

We will have to sotp this strike!

it's time to be smart!

What will we be doing

if this strike continues for months?

How will our comprades

pay their bills?

But, if we go back now, we can still

negotiate the striking days.

You are a traitor.

You are a traitor!

-You are a traitor!

-Shut up, you! Damn it!

Calm down, people!

Calm down, people!

We have orders

to evacuate the building!

Attention, let's go out!

You know what to do...

then just go and do it.

But, if you can't...

wait.

Look at our syndicate!

F***ing traitor!

You are to blame, Lula!

Lula traitor!

Saturday, 23rd of march 1979.

Lula , the leader of the metallurgists...

leaves the syndicate restricted

by the govern.

On this football stadium,

the metallurgists...

had their meeting

of about 100 thousand participants.

With intervention,

the stadium was overtaken by the policemen.

Today, we are using our church

to be able to make our movement...

and we are going until the end. With Lula

or wihtout Lula, all of us are a Lula.

Ei, son...

You have so many obligations, right?

The most important of all...

is never to forget

where are you coming from.

You know?

Comrades!

This directorate...

is here for the class...

and for you.

But, because the class doesn't seem

to be happy with our attitude...

to stop the strike...

then, what we have to do...

is let the decision in your

hands...

to those, who really are

those that matter.

Comrades, we go forward together...

we fight together!

What this directorate understood...

is that we would get very delayed...

if we lose everything

we have gained...

and took the decision

based on that thought.

Now, in order for

this directorate to continue...

then we need...

we need...

a vote of trust!

Lula! Lula! Lula!

The united workers

will never be defeated!

Sunday, again with Lula

leading the movement...

in the Cathedral of Sao Bernardo.

Jesus Christ, the workers of ABC

were forced to start a strike...

to get a small increase

in their salaries.

Jeez, the women

are working!

Wait, wait.

Lula, the journalists want

to know if there will really be a strike?

But it doesn't depend on us.

Look, tell them that, if there will be a strike...

it won't be only against the employers, no,

it will be against the regime too.

Now, Lula said several times...

that tomorrow or later, for example,

everyone can get locked.

And from there on, how

will the movement go?

Dear workers.

I know exactly how many promisses

you already heard...

and that plenty of them couldn't be

materialized in facts and realizations.

But i wouldn't hesitate to apply

the existing laws...

agains situations that are threatening...

the security of the brazilian family.

Luis lgnacio?

Open this door!

Stay calm.

Don't worry.

As my mom says,

''things will get better''.

Comrades, at 6:
30 in the morning...

in his house.

Lula is now...

in a prison in Sao Paulo.

What now, huh, Lula?

This is cowardice!

Cowardice of those that have the power!

What will we do?

Lula, Lula, Lula!

Tiana, what are they saying about him there?

Ah, i know it's nothing good, right?

But nobody tells me anything.

Oh, mom!

It's nothing like that, no.

Then, why didn't Luis

come to visit me here anymore?

Lula is traveling, mom,

i already told you that...

work for the syndicate.

Mrs.Lindu?

Like this, my son.

Mrs. lindu, come here.

Here, boy.

I only know one thing, people.

Those that are outside can't forget

not even for one second...

that we are locked in here.

Damn it, we have the public opinion

on our side!

We can't forget about it

not even for one second.

What is the public opinion worth

in a dictatorship, damn it?

It's worth, yes! Why wouldn't it worth?

It's worth, yes.
