Three young brazilians girls, Mariana, Carolina and Fernanda have been drafted to produce a scholar work about the music "Subdesenvolvido" (Underdevelopped) by Carlos Lyra and Chico de Assis.
Historical scholarship tasks don't bring any deep conclusion in their majority, never look for important purposes and trow into superficialities. However, this one run away and brought to the scene, once more, the great anguish present in all brazilians hearts: their own country. The teenagers thoughts, even in a naive way, sent them to build a portrait of their country, at that time always unfortunally dying and singing the glories of the four times soccer world championship. The ideia of diffusing the work, done tree years ago and just possible because the kindness of the superbs photographers of Jornal do Brasil and Veja magazine in assigning their images, came from the obvious and clear understanding that the subject showed there still remains nowadays extremely contemporary and should be shown at the Internet media. Even I am terrible sorry by the hardness of the images, I decide to divulge it. I hope that everyone can help this fabulous country.
