José Mojica Marins: Making a film in Brazil is like making a
  spaceship and sending it to the Moon. We have no resources to make
  movies, and the filmmaker must create a character. He must attack
  on all medias. He has to buy imported film stock, film stock! To
  recreate whats already been created! And show the audiences what
  they want to see! Otherwise, its hopeless: the theaters will
  close! Reviewers will sell bananas and filmmakers will eat the
  peels!
