"This film is not fiction." "There is a place called the "Isle of Flowers."" "There is no God." "THE ISLE OF FLOWERS" "We are in Belém Novo, Porto Alegre, state of Rio Grande do Sul, southern Brazil." "More precisely: we are at latitude 30º, 12 min." "South, and longitude 51º, 11 min." "West." "Right now, we're walking through a tomato field." "Standing in front of us, we can see a human being." "In this case, a Japanese." "Japanese differ from other human beings in their eyes, hair and haracteristic names." "This particular Japanese is called..." "Suzuki." "Humans beings are biped mammals, and differ from mammals or bipeds like whales or chickens in two main characteristics:" "Their highly-developed brain and opposing thumbs." "Their highly-developed brain enables human beings to store, process and understand information." "Their opposing thumbs give them a pincer movement, which allows a precise manipulation of objects." "Their highly-developed brain, together with the pincer movement of their fingers allowed humans to make improvements on their planet." "For example  to grow tomatoes." "Tomatoes, unlike whales, chickens and Japanese, are vegetables." "Tomatoes have been cultivated for their nutritional value since 1800." "Planet Earth produces around 61 million tons of tomato a year." "Although Mr Suzuki works 12 hours a day, he's responsible for a small share of this production." "Tomatoes are used, mainly, to feed human beings." "Mr Suzuki is a Japanese." "He is, therefore, a human being." "However, Mr Suzuki does not grow tomatoes to eat them." "Mr Suzuki's tomatoes are sent to a supermarket in exchange for money." "Money was invented by Giges, King of Lydia, in Asia Minor, 7 centuries before Christ." "Christ was a Jew." "Jews have highly-developed brains and opposing thumbs." "Therefore, they are human beings." "Until the introduction of money, the economy was based on direct exchange." "The problems of exchanging tomato for chicken, but mostly of exchanging whales for chicken, were the main reason for the invention of money." "Since the 3rd century BC, any object produced by human beings" "(thanks to the combined effort of their brains and opposing thumbs) and every single thing on Earth:" "tomatoes, chickens or whales, can be exchanged for money." "Supermarkets were created to simplify the exchange of tomatoes for money." "Mrs Anete is a biped, a mammal, and a Roman Catholic." "She has a highly-developed brain and opposing thumbs." "She is, therefore, a human being." "Among other things, she is at the supermarket to exchange money for tomatoes." "Mrs Anete earned her money in exchange for her work." "She uses her brain and opposing thumbs to exchange perfumes for money." "Perfumes are liquids extracted from flowers, to give humans a more pleasant odour." "Mrs Anete does not extract the perfumes from flowers." "She exchanges a certain amount of money for perfumes with a manufacturer." "After that, Mrs Anete goes from door to door, exchanging perfumes for more money." "The difference between both sums of money is called... profit." "Profit used to be forbidden to Catholics, but it is free for everyone now." "Mrs Anete's profit is smaller than the manufacturer's, but it is enough to be exchanged for tomatoes and pig-meat -that is, pork." "Pigs, like humans and whales, are mammals, but quadruped." "Pigs are used to feed Chatholics, Japanese, and other human beings, Jews excepted." "The items that Mrs Anete bought will be consumed by her family in one day." "A day is the time interval the Earth takes to rotate around its axis." "The middle of the day, is lunch time." "A family is a community made up by a married man and woman, together with the children born from that marriage." "Some of the tomatoes that Mr Suzuki exchanged with the supermarket, and Mrs Anete exchanged for the money she got for the perfumes, were turned into sauce for the pork." "One of these tomatoes, which was not good for the sauce, was thrown in the garbage." "Garbage is every human product (fruit of their brains and opposing thumbs), and which human beings judge not good to be used in a sauce." "Porto Alegre, inhabited by more than a million human beings, produces 500 tons a day." "Garbage attracts all kinds of germs, which in turn cause diseases." "Diseases seriously impair the proper functioning of human beings." "Even when it does not cause a disease, garbage is extremely unpleasant." "That is why garbage is taken to faraway places, where it can freely pollute, smell and attract diseases." "In Porto Alegre, one of these places for garbage is called the "Isle of Flowers."" "An island is a portion of land surrounded by water." "Water is an odourless and colourless substance made up of hydrogen and oxygen." "Flowers are the reproductive organs of plants, usually odorous and colourful." "Perfumes, like those Mrs Anete exchanged for money for tomatoes, are extracted from flowers." "There are few flowers on the "Isle of Flowers."" "There are, however, lots of garbage, like the tomato that was not good for pork sauce." "There are also many pigs on the island." "The tomato that wasn't good for the pork that was going to feed Anete's family would be excellent to feed a family of pigs." "It is worth mention that Mrs Anete has a developed brain, while a pig does not have thumbs, let alone opposing ones." "Pigs, therefore, have an owner." "The owner is a human being, with a developed brain, opposing thumbs, and money." "The owner of the pigs exchanged some money for a lot on the "Isle of Flowers,"" "thus becoming the owner of the lot." "A lot is a plot of land that has an owner and a fence around it." "This lot was fenced off to keep the pigs in, and other human beings out." "Men who work for the owner select the organic materials to feed the pigs." "'Organic material' is everything that was once alive, whether animal or vegetable." "Tomatoes, chickens, pigs, flowers and paper are organic materials." "This paper, for example, has been used in a primary history test by student Ana Luiza Nunes, a human being." "A history test evaluates the capacity of a human brain to remember historical information." "For example: "Who was Mem de Sá?" "Mention the Hereditary Capitanies."" "To remember is to live." "Some organic materials, like tomatoes and history tests, are given to the pigs as food." "What was judged not good for the pigs will be used to feed women and children." "Women and children are human beings with developed brains and opposing thumbs, but no money." "They have no owner and, what is worse, they are too many." "Since they are too many, the men who work for the owner organise them in groups of ten, and give them permission to cross the fence and get inside." "Once inside, they can get the food that was judged not good for the pigs." "The men who work for the owner have decided that each group of human beings has 5 min." "to stay inside the fence gathering organic materials, like tomatoes and history tests." "5 minutes equals 300 seconds." "Since 1958, a second was defined as the equivalent of 9 billion, 192 million, 631 thousand, 770 radiation cycles of a caesium atom." "Caesium is a non organic material that appeared in the garbage in Goiânia." "The tomato, planted by Mr Suzuki, exchanged for money with the supermarket, and for the money Anete exchanged for perfumes from flowers, and which was not good for the sauce, nor for the pigs" "is now available to human beings on the "Isle of Flowers."" "That which placed human beings after pigs in the priority queue for food is the fact that they have neither money nor an owner." "Human beings distinguish themselves from other animals in their brains, their opposing thumbs, and the fact that they are free." "'Free' is the state of those who enjoy freedom." "'Freedom' is a word that feeds the dream of humanity;" "that no one can explain, but everyone understands." "In reality, this film was made by Jorge Furtado." "Subtitles:" "BLAS" "In reality, the last line was taken from the "Romanceiro da Inconfidéncia."" "In reality, the music was taken from "O Guaraní."" "In reality, Mrs Anete is Irene Schmidt." "In reality, Mr Suzuki is Gosei Kitajima and Takehiro Suzuki." "In reality, Mrs Anete's house is Mercedes and Gilberto's." "In reality, many images are from an isle 2km from the "Isle of Flowers."" "The rest is reality."
