Un détachement de soldats est envoyé afin de prévenir d'éventuels troubles. Pour conjurer le mauvais sort, d'autres villageois se livrent, sous la direction d'un prêtre, à des rites superstitieux. Par ailleurs, un soldat, en état d'ébriété, commet un homicide en essayant de ramener de l'ordre dans un groupe de paysans en colère. Gaúcho, un conducteur de camion, s'insurge, pour sa part, contre l'attitude d'un villageois acceptant passivement le décès de sa fille, morte d'inanition. Il incite aussi les paysans à la révolte. Mais, la moindre tentative de sédition sera sévèrement réprimée.

As most of the inhabitants are illiterate, they have no choice but to ask for the help of Antônio Biá, a man who has been ostracized ever since it was discovered that he had sent out letters with lies about their reputations as a way to keep his job in Javé's seldom-used post office. He now has the task of documenting people's memories of how the city was founded, yet each inhabitant has his or her own version of what happened.
