Original title: Palavra e Utopia
The story of Father Antonio Vieira, a 17th-century Portuguese priest who lived in Brazil and worked for better treatment of the Indians and to abolish slavery.
In 1663, Father Antonio Vieira (Lima Duarte) is called to appear before the terrible Portuguese Inquisition, he needs to explain the ideas he defends, when questioning slavery, the situation of the Indians and empire-colony relations. Intrigue in court and a small misunderstanding weaken the power of the Jesuit, who became close friends with King John IV. Before the judges, Father Vieira cleans his past: the past youth in Brazil and the years of novitiate in Bahia, his involvement in the cause of the Indians and the first success in the pulpit. Forbidden by the Inquisition to speak in public, he takes refuge in Rome, where he gains enormous reputation and success. Queen Cristina of Sweden, who had been living in Rome since her abdication, kept Vieira in court and insisted that he become her confessor. Longing for Portugal, the priest returns to his country. However, the coldness with which he is received by the new king, Dom Pedro, forces his return to Brazil, where he spends the last years of his life.
