The Misadventures of Dracula Von Barreto in the Lands of the Agrarian Reform (As Desventuras do Drácula Von Barreto nas Terras da Reforma Agrária)
Overview
To the tune of "A terra a quem a trabalha", an Alentejo peasant girl is attacked by a vampire but rescued afterwards by workers and peasants armed with sickles and hammers. Filmed during the 1977 Festa do Avante, with a collective of participants linked to cinema and theatre, this film is a critique of the legislative process led by António Barreto, Minister of Agriculture between 1976-1978, which put an end to the agrarian reform occupations.
