In 1992 João Moreira Salles began shooting a film about Santiago, the butler in his childhood home who left an indelible mark upon the family. Santiago was an educated man who, in addition to his work, produced some 60,000 pages of stories documenting his surroundings as well as tales of aristocratic lifestyles, including that of the house in which he himself served.
The film won the award for Best Documentary at the Festival Du Réel in Paris and also at the Alba Film Festival in Italy.
