The village of the three whistles
A Vila dos Três Apitos
IN PRODUCTION
At the blow of a whistle coming from the textile factory in Vila Isabel, the workers would go on for another day of work; meanwhile Noel Rosa was talking about love. The Working Class' Village of the factory consists of nine sets of standard houses, a once common format that now only exists in this particular area of Rio de Janeiro. Even today it keeps secrets of the samba Três Apitos and hundreds of other songs by the poet from Vila, who lived nearby. The film uses popular imagery, archives and other memories to tell the story of a myth immortalized in its place of inspiration. It's a journey through time, a proposal to merge the past and the present. Dori Caymmi and several interpreters gather around Noel's songs and images from Vila Isabel. Feature musical documentary for cinemas, TV and VOD.
