BBC Brazil An Inconvenient History XviD AC3

Brazil: An Inconvenient History History Documentary hosted by Sean Barret, published by BBC in 2010 - English narration Information ------------------------------ Brazil: An Inconvenient History At first glance Brazil appears to be an alluring playground of exciting carnivals, sultry samba, divine football and a vibrantly diverse people. But behind this dazzling facade lies a disturbing story of history's largest-ever slave population. Astonishingly Brazil, a Portuguese colony, received ten-times more African slaves than the numbers transported to North America. This programme looks at those estimated 4 million people with whose blood, sweat and tears Brazil was built. Without them none of Brazil's present-day success and appeal would exist. Using contemporary testimonies, this film takes a hard look at Brazil s dark history through the eyes of those slaves. They lived in squalid conditions on remote plantations or in teeming cities harboring fatal diseases. Most Africans survived only seven years in this 'New World'. Some, however, did survive to create a new culture a fusion of African and European. This new ethnicity permeates and explains the modern Brazilian way of life. This outstanding film, winner of the Houston Film Festival Gold Award, is directed by Phil Grabsky. His film throws light on Brazil s inconvenient history.DVD Release Date: 31 Mar 2008 Screenshots ------------------------------ http://img853.imageshack.us/img853/7499/brazilaninconvenienthis.jpg http://img12.imageshack.us/img12/7499/brazilaninconvenienthis.jpg http://img847.imageshack.us/img847/7499/brazilaninconvenienthis.jpg http://img833.imageshack.us/img833/7499/brazilaninconvenienthis.jpg http://img713.imageshack.us/img713/7499/brazilaninconvenienthis.jpg http://img32.imageshack.us/img32/7499/brazilaninconvenienthis.jpg http://img824.imageshack.us/img824/7499/brazilaninconvenienthis.jpg http://img98.imageshack.us/img98/7499/brazilaninconvenienthis.jpg http://img813.imageshack.us/img813/7499/brazilaninconvenienthis.jpg Technical Specs ------------------------------ * Video Codec: XviD ISO MPEG-4 * Video Bitrate: 1943 kbps * Video Resolution: 720 x 400 * Video Aspect Ratio: 1.800 (16:9) * Frames Per Second: 29 * Audio Codec: 0x2000 (Dolby AC3) * Audio Bitrate: 128 kb/s AC3 48000 Hz * Audio Streams: 2ch * Audio Languages: English * RunTime per Part 48.mins * Number of Parts: 1 * Part Size: 700 MB * Source: DVD * Encoded by: Harry65 Links ------------------------------ 1) Further Information http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brazil 2) Related Documentaries http://docuwiki.net/?title=Brazil%20Revealed http://docuwiki.net/?title=Roots%20of%20Brazil http://docuwiki.net/?title=Our%20World%3A%20Brazil%27s%20Child%20Prostitutes http://docuwiki.net/?title=Gods%20of%20Brazil%20Pele%20and%20Garrincha 3) ed2k Links Added by http://docuwiki.net/?title=User%3AHarry65 Source: http://docuwiki.net/index.php?title=Brazil%3A_An_Inconvenient_History
