In the late 1960s, Thomas Farkas imported equipment suitable for direct sound, and released a collection of documentaries called "Brasil Verdade" ("True Brazil"), after the Military Coup d'État took place in Brazil, which happened without any popular resistance or revolution or reaction of the society. The five short films are directly related to this fact and its consequences to the country.
