Production

Filming took place in the early months of 1997, in the municipality of Araçuaí, Minas Gerais, with all exterior scenes shot in the villages of Itira, Quatis, and Alfredo Graça, where the local residents became extras. The perpetual motion machine that appears in the film was built in an adapted corral, a joint effort by set designers from São Paulo and local carpenters from the municipality.
