Os Fuzis
''The Guns'' ( pt, Os Fuzis) is a 1964 Brazilian-Argentine drama film directed by Ruy Guerra. Synopsis The film's plot alternates between two stories, both set in the drought-stricken ''sertão'' of Northeastern Brazil in 1963.

The other storyline follows a group of soldiers who are sent to the region to thwart the attempts of impoverished civilians to plunder a storehouse for food owned by the wealthy mayor of the small town of Milagres, Bahia. Guerra filmed ''The Guns'' in a triptych of styles. The pilgrims appear as an anonymous mass in their devotion to their project, while the hungry peasants are given a more documentarian treatment. By contrast, the soldiers are more individuated, with long swaths of time devoted to showing their boredom in their task at hand. One soldier, Mario, becomes smitten with a young wo ...
