Interesses em comum e a promessa de cada um chegar ao seu destino faz com que Johann e Ranulpho partam nessa aventura juntos. Uma aventura que vai mudar suas vidas para sempre. Um road-movie emocionante vivido por personagens inesquev Translated Case Cover (Google Translate): The year is 1942, the world lives the Second World War. A German by the name of Johann leaves Rio de Janeiro and drives a truck laden with Aspirin bottles and films with advertisements for the product. In this journey, Johann knows a country, at the same time that escapes from the news of war. Ranulpho, a resident of a small village, does the reverse, that is, he is going to seek a better life in the promising and industrialized southeastern part of the country, and for this he leaves his small hometown for Rio de Janeiro. In an arid and uninhabited road, the occasional meeting of these two characters happens. Interests in common and the promise of each one to arrive at its destination causes that Johann and Ranulpho leave in this adventure together. An adventure that will change their lives forever. An exciting road-movie experienced by inesquev characters From IMDb: In 1942, the lonely German Johann travels through the arid roads in the country of the Northeast of Brazil in his truck selling aspirins in small villages, using advertisement movies to promote the medicine. He meets the drifter Ranulpho, who intends to go to Rio de Janeiro seeking a better life, and gives a ride to the man. While traveling together, they develop a close friendship, but on 31 August 1942, Brazil declares war to Germany and Johann has to decide if he should return to his home country and fight in the war, or stay in Brazil in a concentration camp; but the option of moving to Amazonas with the migrants of the drought seems to be feasible.
