00:00:01What is that?
00:00:39What is that?
00:00:40What is that?
00:00:49What is that?
00:00:52I remember many things that I didn't have in my childhood, not really.
00:00:56I had a short childhood.
00:00:59I took care of everything for my sisters.
00:01:00I was already begging for alms here in Canção.
00:01:02To raise all my sisters.
00:01:04And the boy isn't seeing it.
00:01:08He didn't care about anything, my brother.
00:01:10I was the one who took care of it.
00:01:14In the reef, taking away one side in the reef.
00:01:22My family is from the countryside, right?
00:01:24My father and my mother.
00:01:26And because the drought was very severe in the interior, the drought, the poverty,
00:01:32So she thought it best to hand me over to someone to work as a nanny.
00:01:37You mean it was supposed to be a game with the child, right?
00:01:40At that time I was nine years old.
00:01:44How old were you when you left here exhausted?
00:01:48At ten years old.
00:01:50Because my father handed me over to that woman.
00:01:58She said she was going to put me in school so I could learn to read.
00:02:03For me to graduate, blind as I am in life.
00:02:04And none of that happened.
00:02:18We would get up at three in the morning and work until eight in the morning.
00:02:20The latest I'll see is when it's all over, and it was eight o'clock.
00:02:23I would end everything, really.
00:02:24She washed the pan and everything, tidied everything up.
00:02:26It was eight o'clock at night.
00:02:28Back then, we used to do a lot of that deforestation stuff, right?
00:02:32Because it was the most popular service, right?
00:02:34What was happening in the region?
00:02:39Suffering because...
00:02:40He was working under surveillance, right?
00:02:43It was as if we were prisoners, criminals, and had been stealing things there.
00:02:48Because we always end up working kind of like farmers, right?
00:02:51Good.
00:02:53Yes. More or less.
00:02:55We don't have the option of not going abroad, do we?
00:02:59You have to go there.
00:03:08I, as the grandson of a slave grandfather,
00:03:11I suffered a lot too, I was beaten.
00:03:14I've never seen a black man riding a banker's daughter's skirt.
00:03:17that the black man, the black cattle in the slave quarters.
00:03:20Sometimes I sit here and think, and think,
00:03:22Oh my God, I don't know what miracle, but I escaped!
00:03:24Because it's painful.
00:03:26Sometimes I cry alone, like this.
00:03:28It gives me anxiety watching the judge, then I start to cry.
00:03:30It gives me a bad feeling.
00:03:33AND.
00:03:34Everyone suffers.
00:03:35To this day I still suffer, oh.
00:03:38There are times when I've spoken to my husband,
00:03:39which I now see reflected,
00:03:40I'm going to drink poison and I'm going to die, oh.
00:03:42I already said that I've drunk alcohol once.
00:03:45Bye, bye, bye.
00:04:14Bye, bye.
00:04:51Bye, bye.
00:05:26Bye, bye.
00:05:38Bye, bye.
00:05:41Bye, bye.
00:05:54Bye, bye.
00:06:04Bye, bye.
00:06:07Bye, bye.
00:06:23Bye, bye.
00:06:25Bye, bye.
00:06:42Bye, bye.
00:06:56Bye, bye.
00:06:59Bye, bye.
00:07:10Bye, bye.
00:07:13Bye, bye.
00:07:17Bye, bye.
00:07:49Bye, bye.
00:07:52Bye, bye.
00:07:57Bye, bye.
00:08:13Bye, bye.
00:08:15Bye, bye.
00:08:16Bye, bye.
00:08:23My mother was alone with three children, so she thought it best to give me to someone else.
00:08:31Because that person will have a home, will have food, will be in a family that will be taking care of them.
00:08:39So she preferred to give me up to work as a young girl.
00:08:53I remember, you know, I remember that I didn't want to leave my mother's embrace, my siblings' embrace, and I was taken away.
00:08:59for the Holy Beloved Purification.
00:09:09I was praying down here, actually, right here in my house.
00:09:13Then the people showed up looking for people to work, you know, the men, right, and they said, they also need...
00:09:20A cook, right?
00:09:21My husband had already gone there to put the name down, and I said, "Man, that was also the way I..."
00:09:25I'll go with you to cook for the thorny bush.
00:09:27This boy, what are you going to do? I said, I'm going, man, I need to earn money too, me and
00:09:30You work.
00:09:31Then we went there, you know, me and him, three men took us from here, three men, but they were packed.
00:09:37Of people, of men, only of men, of women only, there was only me.
00:09:54We were going because we have a family, we have a commitment to fulfill, you know, with our family.
00:10:00So that's what we were going to do. I have two, I have two black guys, they're at home, I miss them.
00:10:05me.
00:10:08But it's painful, it's not good.
00:10:13We have people who are displaced from their municipalities of origin.
00:10:17These people are already vulnerable when they leave there.
00:10:20When you remove a worker from their place, from their natural habitat, and take them to another location, they don't...
00:10:26He knows the people, but he doesn't know the customs.
00:10:28Brazil is very large.
00:10:29These regional variations leave the worker vulnerable.
00:10:36So, for each plot, let's say it was a plot of ten acres, then there were three motorcyclists, who were the guys.
00:10:43who were cutting them down with a chainsaw, and a sentimental one, which in this case was me.
00:10:49The mushy one, which was the case for me, was mushy.
00:10:51I wasn't a chainsaw-wielding opportunist, I wasn't responsible for carrying the water, carrying the oil, carrying the gasoline,
00:11:01And bring your lunch, right?
00:11:05And the equipment the motorcyclist was using, the key, things like that.
00:11:12The felling, because you're doing it, is in a place that's inaccessible.
00:11:16You're not coming here, do you understand?
00:11:18The material you'll need for the logging, you have to haul it on foot, five, six kilometers.
00:11:25Where the car arrives from.
00:11:28Do you understand, sir?
00:11:29He would only come when it was finished, because the farmer wouldn't let him come before then.
00:11:33It's 30 days, 35 days.
00:11:45We used to sleep in the makeshift shack in a hammock, right, sir?
00:11:55The cold I felt was somewhere between a jaguar's and a jaguar's.
00:11:58I was afraid they'd eat me up in there, because they started yelling right out of the shack.
00:12:08I had a small room where I slept, but my husband, you know, and the daughter, were separate.
00:12:12Now the other men were all mixed up over there, man, the whole room.
00:12:15That little room in the kitchen, you know, where I used to cook.
00:12:19I slept there, but my wife would take a bath there, because there was a small, old bathroom there, you know, we'd bathe there, everything.
00:12:23There, I stayed there, and I was with my little girl.
00:12:35Living in a makeshift tent, having no possibility of accessing wages,
00:12:40This limits the worker's decisions, even hindering their ability to choose a different type of job.
00:12:49life
00:12:50And it remains indefinitely, until it is challenged by public authorities, in a situation of exploitation.
00:12:59Moreover, it is quite striking to see this in the farmers' own discourse when they try to defend themselves in court.
00:13:09And sometimes, even from the Supreme Court Justice himself, when a case or accusation tries to surface,
00:13:15They say, "But these are the normal working conditions in that region."
00:13:21Look, why should I provide drinking water and built housing?
00:13:28The worker, you see, in the camps where I went to hire them, they say, there aren't any.
00:13:34Why should my farm be rated three stars?
00:13:37In other words, justifying the maintenance of misery by citing pre-existing misery, therefore reproducing that misery.
00:13:53You could say that I didn't sleep, that I went to bed at one in the morning and woke up at four in the morning,
00:13:57Since I didn't want to wake up, she threw a cold drink at me to get me up, and I had to get up.
00:14:03I would get up, take care of things, and the first thing I would do was make coffee.
00:14:08Then I would go to the backyard to tidy up, and then I would go upstairs to do other things.
00:14:12And she would tell me, she would say, "Oh, I'll arrive at such and such time, noon, I want everything to be there."
00:14:16ready.
00:14:17I was rushing to do everything quickly, in a rush.
00:14:19And she would come and hit me, even though I hadn't done anything.
00:14:22Right from the start, I cried a lot and got beaten because I cried and wet the bed.
00:14:30Because she was a child, you know, she had no sense of responsibility.
00:14:35And I went to take care of a child, I mean, a child taking care of another child.
00:14:41And then the child would fall, get hurt, and the employer didn't care, she'd beat me, you know, punish me.
00:14:54Every time I wet the bed, she would hit me too, and make me wash those heavy sheets, you know.
00:15:06He hit me every day, and I didn't know why he was hitting me.
00:15:12And it was always like that, she would hit me in every way imaginable, with a stick, with a knife, with everything.
00:15:16She bit me; she even put a hot egg in my mouth once.
00:15:21She did everything with me.
00:15:23I've been burned by hot water before, and I've even put hot gourds in my mouth.
00:15:29She was beaten in such a way that when she arrived, nobody recognized her.
00:15:32They removed those bandages from her legs and back, from all the beatings she had received.
00:15:42I asked her, "Why did they hit you?"
00:15:45Ah, she used to hit me because when she argued with her husband, she would hit me.
00:15:49And the other reason was because she was nervous.
00:15:52So he was a punching bag, what's that all about?
00:15:54Gabriela screamed and howled, locked up; she couldn't go out into the street.
00:16:00It was effectively a private prison, a true private prison.
00:16:03And the atrocities were very severe.
00:16:07The neighborhood knew all about it, and it was kind of a veiled thing, you know, a hidden thing.
00:16:20Because it was always locked up there.
00:16:23She was at the gate, one of those control points, nobody could see me.
00:16:27I only went out with her.
00:16:29But I didn't go out inside the house, I stayed doing things too.
00:16:33You stayed, how long did you stay there?
00:16:35I stayed for 15 years.
00:16:41She was trapped there because she had no right to go anywhere.
00:16:46Because she had her as a slave, she herself said so, because she had her as a slave.
00:16:51She ended up telling me that at times she thought about running away, but she kept asking herself, "Run away to where?"
00:16:55She didn't even know how to get home.
00:16:58We could ask ourselves, how does one manage to enslave someone?
00:17:03What is the mechanism?
00:17:04One of the most important aspects is domination.
00:17:08That is, convincing the other person that what you are doing is right.
00:17:13There may also be other mechanisms, and sometimes they are complementary, not mutually exclusive.
00:17:17For example, threats, violence, and murder.
00:17:21But the main thing is to convince people that the dominant person is right.
00:17:29Because you know, poor people through rich people, right?
00:17:32And she always told me that poor people were worthless.
00:17:35And I kept thinking about it.
00:17:37She said that if I ran away, my name would be on the police station's list.
00:17:41I was afraid of going to jail.
00:17:43She used to beat me, and I told her that when my mother got there, I was going to tell her.
00:17:48that she was hitting me.
00:17:51And she said that if I told my mother that she hit me, she would throw me in the river.
00:17:56It's a river that's in Santo Amaro, called the Subaé River, right?
00:18:01And when my mother came looking for me, she would say that I had run away from home.
00:18:05So I didn't say anything.
00:18:06My mother would arrive and ask me, "Is everything alright, Creuza?"
00:18:09I kept saying, everything is fine.
00:18:12Mrs. Marlene, I still remember, does she treat you well?
00:18:15I'll treat you.
00:18:16I didn't tell her because I was afraid.
00:18:18I was afraid she would kill me.
00:18:20Because she always told me that she had already killed a funeral.
00:18:23Behind the house I was afraid.
00:18:25She'll kill me.
00:18:31I think the biggest difficulty in uncovering these cases of domestic slave labor is...
00:18:38That's because they occur in a very particular, very private context.
00:18:44Because it largely depends on the goodwill of the neighbors, on the people close to them having the courage to report it.
00:18:51The Public Prosecutor's Office doesn't knock on the housewife's door.
00:18:55They go to the charcoal kilns, the fields, and so on.
00:18:59How many children are scattered around there?
00:19:00And it is slavery.
00:19:02Because you don't have a salary.
00:19:04These children have no salary.
00:19:05And it's so petty that it's disguised as if the person were a member of the family.
00:19:11Even in rural domestic work, often because the farms are very far away,
00:19:19only through a complaint from some worker who managed to escape, who left the farm,
00:19:24We carried out several rescues in this way.
00:19:34It didn't work like that there.
00:19:36I would only leave if I had permission to do so from there.
00:19:39It wouldn't come out like that.
00:19:41It's some kind of inspector, right?
00:19:45A certain armed inspector.
00:19:49Armed.
00:19:49The guys.
00:19:51He would occasionally go to the cafeteria, the place where I used to sit.
00:19:55But it was difficult.
00:19:56Mantava mais mesmo era o, como é chama?
00:19:58The cat, right?
00:19:59Who has a cat business.
00:20:01Mantava mais mesmo era o gato que vai lá.
00:20:02The farm owner was really difficult.
00:20:04We can see his face.
00:20:05But it was the cat.
00:20:23We would get up at three in the morning, and by eleven o'clock the food would be ready.
00:20:28When we were completely finished, around eight o'clock at night, after washing everything, I would go to sleep.
00:20:32Where it was three o'clock again, just like that.
00:20:33The only day off was Sunday.
00:20:37Only on Sunday.
00:20:38The workers, right?
00:20:39Now I was doing it every day.
00:20:41What did I have to make to eat so I could go on Sunday, since they're not working, right?
00:20:45All day.
00:20:48Approximately 40 men.
00:20:52He's very much a man.
00:20:56There was a potion there, one, what's it called?
00:20:59I don't know, it's a real pit.
00:21:00We would pull it out, the well goes there.
00:21:03We used to drink water from our laps, right?
00:21:04There were no improvements whatsoever there.
00:21:06There we would get water to drink from, we would bathe, we would wash our clothes.
00:21:16So you can tell when a worker is being humiliated, when their work is being belittled, right?
00:21:23To nothing, to a zero on the left.
00:21:27And that, from my point of view, is the main characteristic of contemporary slave labor.
00:21:32It is something far more serious than simply the suppression of freedom.
00:21:37This employer realizes that he can't save money on seeds, he can't save money on the price of cattle,
00:21:43You can't cut corners on fencing, barbed wire, or vehicles.
00:21:50And where does he save money?
00:21:51In the workforce, which is the weakest link in this chain.
00:22:06We had to work, but the way we were working there, I don't think it was right.
00:22:11right?
00:22:11Working too hard, earning peanuts.
00:22:14Earning a pittance.
00:22:15And sometimes he would even be late in paying us, he would drag his feet.
00:22:19We would take a little bit before leaving, you understand, to leave at home, so as not to leave the family behind.
00:22:25People who are helpless in any way.
00:22:27And the rest, only when it was finished.
00:22:30Then, when it was finished, it would deduct the cost of your purchase, so you could do the work out in the woods.
00:22:36Because when we were clearing land, we were responsible for purchasing the land ourselves.
00:22:41We bought from the farm, then at the end of the job, we deducted the cost, you understand what we had taken, and then...
00:22:48Whatever was left over was ours.
00:22:51There were times when there wasn't any left over, because then the chainsaw would break, and you'd have to buy more.
00:22:55Everything you bought there had to be deducted from your purchase at the end.
00:23:00Upon arriving at the property, the worker has to purchase the tools of the trade from the contractor's canteen.
00:23:10He has to buy his food from there too.
00:23:13The plastic sheeting he'll use to cover his house is also purchased at that same place.
00:23:19So, he becomes a prisoner of this debt, a prisoner of a moral value, a prisoner of his soul.
00:23:24He can't leave because he owes money. Those who owe money must pay.
00:23:29Sometimes we felt a little awkward, but we have families, you know?
00:23:33He has a wife and a child.
00:23:36So, it's tough, but it's better than the guy doing something wrong, messing with those things that...
00:23:44They're no good there, are they?
00:23:45I never received a salary, I didn't even know what money was.
00:23:50Her sister would give me the money, and at Christmas she would take the money back from me.
00:23:53I didn't have a salary, however, every time my mother went there, which was every six months,
00:23:59She would give away the leftover food she had in the refrigerator, things, used clothes.
00:24:05And it was like, today, 30 reais.
00:24:09My mother would come back so happy, wouldn't she?
00:24:11Because 30 reais was the price back then, right?
00:24:14And for those who have nothing, anything will do.
00:24:16And having the girl there, working, is a guarantee that, from time to time, they, the parents, you know, will have...
00:24:24a resource.
00:24:27They were sending things, right?
00:24:28The boss was in charge, right?
00:24:31Food, clothing, hunted.
00:24:34She used to send me everything, right?
00:24:38Her boss would call me, and I would call her directly.
00:24:44It was very difficult, you know, not being able to stand the contact?
00:24:47Only my aunt.
00:24:48To say that I talked to her more, I never really talked to her more.
00:24:52I had, I had said to the boss,
00:24:55I was saying, Gabriela, your father is calling.
00:24:58Oh no, I'm not going to answer.
00:25:02She means she wasn't going to answer, right?
00:25:13I saw her talking to him on the phone.
00:25:15But the woman kept saying that I had gotten married.
00:25:19He had a nice apartment and couldn't talk to me, right?
00:25:23And then he realized he didn't care about me anymore because of that.
00:25:26And on the rare occasions when some contact was allowed between her and her father,
00:25:33There was always a different truth, a different situation.
00:25:36And she didn't have the right or the opportunity to speak.
00:25:39She recounts it with great, well, great indignation,
00:25:41She didn't even have the opportunity to return to the countryside for her mother's funeral.
00:25:46She didn't tell me anything, that my mother had died.
00:25:48It was about a year ago that she told me my mother had died.
00:25:52Then she brought me here to see my father, right?
00:25:55And I cried to stay, but my father wouldn't let me stay.
00:25:58My father told me to go back, but she didn't want me in the house.
00:26:01Then I grabbed her and dragged her there by force.
00:26:05I was, what, about 11 years old.
00:26:07If I already had nowhere to return to before my mother,
00:26:12After my mother's death, things got even worse, and then I really had nowhere to go back to.
00:26:15So I had to stay there, in the houses, enduring certain situations.
00:26:20Because I had nowhere to go.
00:26:22Where was I supposed to go? To my uncle's or aunt's house, right?
00:26:24That when I came back from vacation or time off, I would frown,
00:26:29In other words, this is no place for you to stay.
00:26:32This arm of mine right here, it's broken.
00:26:35I can't punch him.
00:26:36If I put on a show, even my girl, if I hold on for too long, I'll knock her down.
00:26:40She pushed me against a wall, almost in the middle of that wall over there.
00:26:45Then I broke my arm, the bone popped out.
00:26:48Seeing the bone in my arm, she made me wash ten pairs of shoes with the bone bulging out of my arm.
00:26:53And I was crying, when I was doing things, I was just dripping from my arm, and I was just doing them.
00:26:58Even now, I can't put any weight on my arm; it's broken.
00:27:04Guys, if you get sick there, someone in your family gets sick there,
00:27:11It's forgotten there.
00:27:13If you don't have money, you, those guys, those bosses, you're not helping anyone.
00:27:21You are not seen, no.
00:27:23He just wants your service.
00:27:26Then you need everyone to go outside.
00:27:37The scale of modern slavery is even greater than that of forced labor.
00:27:46It has several facets, several components, which at the very end, can all be reduced to one another.
00:27:56Or it can all be summed up in one single idea, which is the instrumentalization of the person, of the other.
00:28:07To make another person into something, to make another person into something for my own personal gain.
00:28:14For my personal and financial gain, for my benefit in a more general sense.
00:28:20And all those situations where a person is objectified,
00:28:28I think they deserve to be called slavery, enslavement.
00:28:39I remember that my boss, she used to go to certain places,
00:28:46She would go out with the children, and I would go along too.
00:28:50But when I got to the beach, I didn't take a bath.
00:28:53I had to be responsible for the child.
00:28:55Playing in the sand, so the girl wouldn't go into the beach.
00:29:00When she was going out to dinner that night,
00:29:02She was acting like a couple on a date,
00:29:05her and her husband embracing, holding hands,
00:29:08And I was behind holding the child.
00:29:10And the child was very heavy, I felt pain in my back.
00:29:12She lived here in a neighborhood of Itapuã,
00:29:15It's a famous neighborhood here in Salvador.
00:29:18where the beach is very close.
00:29:21She went to the beach twice.
00:29:22And both times she was forbidden from entering.
00:29:24because she went there to take care of the children of her siblings who were entitled to have children,
00:29:31And she missed the whole opportunity.
00:29:37What is the culture of slavery, in general?
00:29:40The culture of slavery, even in the past,
00:29:42And this is reflected in the work.
00:29:44For the elites, working was not necessary in the past.
00:29:47It is nowadays, but anyway.
00:29:49And for the very poor, there was no point in working.
00:29:51Because you couldn't get out of that situation.
00:29:53The biggest deficit that Brazil has always had is inequality.
00:29:56I think you can't separate this issue from work and inequality.
00:30:13One of the characteristics of slavery in Brazil
00:30:16It was his hereditary trait.
00:30:18That is, son of a slave, she was a slave.
00:30:23Even if the father were white, unless he managed to obtain his freedom,
00:30:27if the father would release him.
00:30:29Otherwise, he would remain a slave.
00:30:31It was a long-lasting form of slavery, this one in America.
00:30:36People had no moral or ethical constraints about owning slaves.
00:30:40This didn't embarrass anyone, because it was part of the job.
00:30:45Freedom, which is very recent,
00:30:48as a value, as a concept that I should be having.
00:31:07Your grandson is the son of my enslaved grandparents.
00:31:11My maternal and paternal grandparents fled from Pernambuco.
00:31:22He arrived here in Mimbó.
00:31:24This quilombo was founded in 1919.
00:31:29by my two grandparents, maternal and paternal.
00:31:33They spent many years hidden in a cave.
00:31:36The cave is located here in the mountains, on the left bank.
00:31:40which flows down to the Canidé River.
00:31:48So, if he hides for many years,
00:31:50even afraid of being captured,
00:31:52someone coming to look for him.
00:31:55He had fled from the beating.
00:31:56who couldn't take being beaten anymore
00:31:59in the sugarcane fields.
00:32:00Pernambuco.
00:32:09And in Mimbó, I saw various prejudices, racism,
00:32:13with a lot of trampled, closed-off communities.
00:32:16We were treated like wild animals.
00:32:18Nobody considered us people.
00:32:24A few days ago, during the election for mayor and city council members,
00:32:27I applied to run for city councilor.
00:32:29to help the community,
00:32:31with the goal of being elected to help this community.
00:32:35Lack of work, we don't have jobs.
00:32:37A lot of little works that appear
00:32:38It's due to political appointments.
00:32:43City councilor, mayor, that sort of thing.
00:32:46And our community, in this respect,
00:32:49From that perspective, we are not seen.
00:32:51There are no vacancies for us in that field.
00:33:03In September of '81,
00:33:05We should have a space here in the community.
00:33:07To reach the tourist destination
00:33:10to get to know us as people,
00:33:11Black people in the community,
00:33:13It was a treaty of '81 until now.
00:33:17But even so, it improved.
00:33:19But racism still exists.
00:33:21Today, prejudices exist among us.
00:33:23I don't care about them here.
00:33:26Because that's why we often leave here.
00:33:28to go to São Paulo, Brasília, Rio de Janeiro,
00:33:32since we've already been almost at that point,
00:33:36almost all of Brazil,
00:33:37looking for a service for us to provide
00:33:39A better standard of living for our family.
00:33:42So, if the government,
00:33:45the municipal, the state,
00:33:47or even the federal government,
00:33:49would generate employment for that population,
00:33:52We certainly wouldn't have many people.
00:33:55from the community that they now live outside.
00:33:58And sometimes people don't even get to work.
00:34:01"Get out of here" is not a nice promise.
00:34:03when you get there,
00:34:05people are left lying around,
00:34:06as has already happened in this case.
00:34:13In Brazil, you have this frequent resurgence.
00:34:17of episodes that typically demonstrate
00:34:21How much racism continues to operate.
00:34:24This boy, this teenager,
00:34:25Tied up at a post on Flamengo beach.
00:34:35And the boy was screaming,
00:34:37No, sir, no, sir,
00:34:38I am a worker too.
00:34:40As if he were consciously,
00:34:44consciously still placing
00:34:47as the subject of the master,
00:34:51From the boss.
00:34:56During the time I was there,
00:34:58in those houses, working,
00:35:00I suffered a lot of violence.
00:35:02Physical violence,
00:35:04The psychological and the racial as well.
00:35:07Because I was being insulted all the time,
00:35:09Disgusting black woman, ugly black woman, that's black, right?
00:35:14And the children of the house
00:35:16They were joking,
00:35:18making fun of my hair,
00:35:20because my curly hair,
00:35:21then they pulled her hair,
00:35:23He was laughing.
00:35:24This big house culture,
00:35:27slave quarters,
00:35:27It was very common,
00:35:28you hear complaints,
00:35:30a long time ago,
00:35:31Ah, yes,
00:35:32now my maid has decided
00:35:33who wants to study,
00:35:34I don't know what.
00:35:36Obvious things,
00:35:36People want to study.
00:35:38The promise to put them in school
00:35:40It didn't happen.
00:35:42She wouldn't send me to school.
00:35:43I only came to study.
00:35:45to do the Mobral program,
00:35:46At 16 years old.
00:35:48At 16 years old,
00:35:49right here in Salvador,
00:35:51That's when I finished.
00:35:52to become literate.
00:35:54Are you 4 years old?
00:35:56I don't remember very well, not really.
00:35:59Do you remember?
00:35:59when you were born,
00:36:00more or less?
00:36:01No.
00:36:02Not even the day?
00:36:05I know,
00:36:06but more or less,
00:36:07like this,
00:36:07You must be 4 years old.
00:36:09I, at least,
00:36:10I think I have some
00:36:12Early 20s.
00:36:14Boy, she...
00:36:18I think she has
00:36:19about 35 years old.
00:36:22Why don't you remember?
00:36:24You never registered,
00:36:26Haven't you ever been curious?
00:36:28No, because
00:36:29I had almost no education, no.
00:36:31and also
00:36:32I don't know the numbers exactly, no.
00:36:36Yeah, but I don't really know.
00:36:37I only know the NRG.
00:36:40At times,
00:36:41We used to ask like this,
00:36:42was questioned during the process,
00:36:43Did you have the right to study?
00:36:45While her sisters
00:36:48They studied at private schools.
00:36:49and so on,
00:36:51Maria Helena,
00:36:52to her liking,
00:36:53she was a teacher
00:36:53from a public school.
00:36:55Rarely
00:36:55She was enrolled.
00:36:57And sometimes
00:36:57that she was enrolled,
00:36:58She had to be kept under surveillance.
00:36:59by A, by B, by C,
00:37:00because she couldn't
00:37:01nor communicate
00:37:02with other people.
00:37:05And I kept growing up like that,
00:37:08and observing
00:37:09that my boss,
00:37:10Sunday,
00:37:11I was at home,
00:37:11on the holiday.
00:37:13And I don't,
00:37:13I was there,
00:37:14I only had time off.
00:37:15Every 15 minutes,
00:37:17That's from the age of 21 onwards, right?
00:37:19And after everything was ready.
00:37:21In truth,
00:37:22I only saw
00:37:22receive salary
00:37:24when I turned 21,
00:37:26because at that time
00:37:27I wasn't obligated
00:37:28I pay a salary.
00:37:29That bothered me.
00:37:31Every worker
00:37:32has their rights,
00:37:33has its union,
00:37:35And domestic workers don't have it.
00:37:37I used to think like this
00:37:38that God was going to help me,
00:37:39that I was going to leave from there.
00:37:44Hello, hello,
00:37:45domestic workers in Salvador.
00:37:47Attention!
00:37:48Come and defend your rights.
00:37:50and to strengthen our class.
00:37:52We are organizing
00:37:53The Domestic Workers Union of Salvador.
00:37:56We count on your participation.
00:37:58Our meetings will be on the second day.
00:38:00and on the fourth Sunday of the month,
00:38:02at Antônio Vieira College.
00:38:04Come on!
00:38:07And there for me
00:38:08It was like a light
00:38:09at the bottom of the tunnel,
00:38:09because I had never heard of it.
00:38:11nobody say
00:38:12who was going to defend the domestic worker.
00:38:13For the first time
00:38:14I was listening.
00:38:20After,
00:38:21when my boss
00:38:22He arrived in the kitchen,
00:38:23I asked her,
00:38:25ma'am, show me
00:38:26here on the calendar
00:38:27what is the second
00:38:28and the fourth Sunday of the month,
00:38:29that the meeting
00:38:30It was twice a month,
00:38:31second and fourth Sunday.
00:38:34After,
00:38:34when she finished
00:38:35to mark,
00:38:36She turned to me.
00:38:36and asked
00:38:37why are you
00:38:38so interested
00:38:39at Antônio Vieira College
00:38:40and in the second
00:38:41and on the fourth Sunday of the month.
00:38:43Every second
00:38:44and the fourth Sunday of the month
00:38:45There's a mass.
00:38:47Because if I said the era
00:38:49which was a group
00:38:50domestic
00:38:51that was beginning
00:38:52to get organized
00:38:52to found
00:38:53a union,
00:38:55she certainly
00:38:56He was going to take me away.
00:38:57to participate.
00:38:58It was sacred.
00:38:59my day off
00:39:00I was going to that meeting.
00:39:02And then it went, and went, and went
00:39:03that today
00:39:04is this the union?
00:39:05that is here.
00:39:16Domestic Sinti,
00:39:17good morning.
00:39:18Good morning.
00:39:19It's from the union, yes.
00:39:20I want to file a complaint.
00:39:22The story of Gabriela
00:39:24That's how it arrived.
00:39:25Somebody
00:39:26called
00:39:27To go to the union.
00:39:30He called anonymously.
00:39:31did not identify himself
00:39:33and said that
00:39:34there was
00:39:35a young woman
00:39:37which was very strange.
00:39:39She was going out.
00:39:39to put the trash in
00:39:40and he entered quickly.
00:39:42It wouldn't stop.
00:39:43to talk
00:39:44with no one.
00:39:45I was going to buy bread.
00:39:46and it didn't stop either
00:39:47to chat.
00:39:49I lived there
00:39:50like this,
00:39:50scared.
00:39:58The neighbors had them, right?
00:40:00Viam
00:40:00all the movement,
00:40:02that Gabriela
00:40:02I couldn't go out,
00:40:04that Gabriela
00:40:05it was locked
00:40:05at home
00:40:06when the bosses
00:40:07they were leaving,
00:40:08employers
00:40:09they were leaving,
00:40:10the children too
00:40:10and that she was getting beaten,
00:40:12so much that she
00:40:13often
00:40:14I was listening to Gabriela
00:40:15yelling,
00:40:17Calling for help
00:40:18because I was getting beaten up,
00:40:19because he was getting beaten up.
00:40:21I had taken
00:40:22a beating from her,
00:40:23I asked God for good luck,
00:40:24I spoke,
00:40:24One day God will help me.
00:40:25that I leave here,
00:40:26Someone is coming.
00:40:26to help me.
00:40:28So, how was it early in the morning?
00:40:29what I said,
00:40:29He's cleaning the yard.
00:40:30She had gone to work.
00:40:32Then I saw us.
00:40:32calling the gate,
00:40:33He told me to open it.
00:40:34She said she couldn't open it.
00:40:35and she had locked me in,
00:40:37I couldn't open it.
00:40:37she said,
00:40:38Oh, but do we want to come in?
00:40:39She said,
00:40:39I can't open it.
00:40:41And she would put a lookout there.
00:40:42Watch out for me.
00:40:48So,
00:40:49This complaint existed.
00:40:50which then was
00:40:51to stop
00:40:52in the Public Prosecutor's Office,
00:40:53the Public Prosecutor's Office
00:40:54He called the police.
00:40:56the police station
00:40:57and at first
00:40:58her private prison
00:40:59It was so strong.
00:41:01that when they got there
00:41:02she was locked up
00:41:03at home
00:41:03and her bosses,
00:41:05the executioners,
00:41:06they weren't
00:41:06At home too.
00:41:09Then she sent
00:41:10I'll tell my story,
00:41:10I counted.
00:41:12Then she said,
00:41:13Don't tell anyone.
00:41:14I'm going to get you out of here.
00:41:18And then it became a mess.
00:41:19all out on the street,
00:41:20They were vehicles,
00:41:21were people
00:41:22that she thought
00:41:23which was a matter of justice,
00:41:24that she actually
00:41:25I didn't really know what it was.
00:41:26and they didn't have
00:41:27an order to break in.
00:41:29So, in this initial phase
00:41:31they said,
00:41:32look,
00:41:32we will provide
00:41:33the paperwork,
00:41:34we will provide
00:41:35the papers
00:41:36And we're back here.
00:41:38Then she arrived.
00:41:39at the same time
00:41:39that she arrived from work
00:41:40the phone rang
00:41:41and her neighbor
00:41:42he said that still
00:41:43There's a little water there.
00:41:45Then I thought,
00:41:45the woman said
00:41:46that you weren't supposed to tell me,
00:41:47right?
00:41:48Then I picked it up and said,
00:41:49no,
00:41:49He didn't see anyone.
00:41:50Then she said,
00:41:50Can you tell me now?
00:41:51Then she took it.
00:41:52a seven-foot wire
00:41:53and he started hitting me,
00:41:54I had to say it.
00:41:56That's how she caught me,
00:41:57My husband caught me.
00:41:57Then the CIA caught them too.
00:41:59That day,
00:41:59I've been dying.
00:42:03Did you hit it a lot?
00:42:04He was.
00:42:05Only after they succeeded
00:42:07really an order
00:42:08burglary
00:42:08who went there
00:42:09rescue her.
00:42:16I kept thinking,
00:42:17I started to cry.
00:42:18thinking I was going to be arrested,
00:42:19that girl said
00:42:19anything
00:42:20I was going to jail.
00:42:21Then I got scared.
00:42:22Then they said,
00:42:23Go down there,
00:42:24taking a shower,
00:42:24tidy up the police station.
00:42:25Then I stayed,
00:42:26I really smell it,
00:42:26What did I do?
00:42:27So now I'm going to jail?
00:42:28I got,
00:42:29I told them everything.
00:42:30And they found them lying,
00:42:31But I picked it up and said,
00:42:33The person has to tell the truth.
00:42:34It's not about lying,
00:42:45Well, sir,
00:42:46We were working there.
00:42:47If I'm not mistaken,
00:42:49There were 160 people.
00:42:51because there were a thousand acres there
00:42:53knocked down,
00:42:53what we were going to do,
00:42:54right?
00:42:55Then I saw the motorcycles.
00:42:56And we're stopping.
00:42:57Even I thought so.
00:42:58that had been
00:42:58some accident,
00:42:59because we
00:43:00It had a combination.
00:43:02that if any companion
00:43:03hurt
00:43:04no,
00:43:05our neighbor
00:43:05there in the lots,
00:43:06the chainsaw stopped,
00:43:07We were already looking for it.
00:43:08to know what had happened,
00:43:10Do you understand, sir?
00:43:10Suddenly,
00:43:12I was in front,
00:43:13I've heard,
00:43:14the guy sent it,
00:43:15He told me to stop.
00:43:16and checked if I had a weapon,
00:43:17I spoke,
00:43:17No sir,
00:43:18No, it doesn't.
00:43:19I already knew that.
00:43:20the boys who were
00:43:21backwards,
00:43:21the motorcyclist rides behind,
00:43:23The sweet one walks in front.
00:43:24That's where we stopped.
00:43:25and took us
00:43:26Everyone to headquarters.
00:43:27I remember,
00:43:28that was between
00:43:29nine thirty
00:43:30Around ten o'clock in the morning.
00:43:33Then he took us out.
00:43:33from the motorcycle,
00:43:50I had the pots on the stove,
00:43:51putting it on the fire,
00:43:53Then the soldier arrived and said,
00:43:55Hold the food tightly.
00:43:56I say,
00:43:56now,
00:43:58Where's the girl who's with you here?
00:43:59The youngest girl?
00:44:00I say,
00:44:00She knows she's my daughter.
00:44:02It's here with me.
00:44:03I couldn't leave her.
00:44:04because I wasn't going to leave her,
00:44:05There was no one left to care for her.
00:44:06So if I brought it,
00:44:07I need to work.
00:44:08to earn mine,
00:44:09of raising my children, right?
00:44:11That's fine.
00:44:13Then they sent me,
00:44:14did you understand?
00:44:15I took the pots away.
00:44:15And I climb up there in the car,
00:44:17which was a truck.
00:44:19I went up.
00:44:20First I got in the car
00:44:21It was me,
00:44:21For driving the car.
00:44:23Inspectors from the Labor Delegation of Pará
00:44:25and Federal Police agents
00:44:27They went to Fazenda Brasil Verde.
00:44:29in Sapucaia,
00:44:30in the south of the state.
00:44:31They found
00:44:3280 workers
00:44:33in an irregular situation
00:44:34inside the property.
00:44:36In the beginning,
00:44:37Mom saw me right away.
00:44:38Turning on the television.
00:44:40Then Mom said,
00:44:41ready,
00:44:41My God in heaven,
00:44:42my daughter,
00:44:42He's not coming here anymore, no.
00:44:43Where did I end up here?
00:44:44the old woman was on time
00:44:45to come to an end.
00:44:47I'm crying.
00:44:47I became worried.
00:44:49And I lost my life.
00:44:50It wasn't a job, no.
00:44:50It was my life.
00:44:52I was worried.
00:44:54Even then,
00:44:56It makes us a little scared, doesn't it?
00:44:58Because he's police.
00:45:01Everywhere you look, right?
00:45:03Not that we have
00:45:04Thus, a problem with the justice system,
00:45:05It's because we get kind of...
00:45:06We don't expect this, do we, sir?
00:45:09And another thing is...
00:45:11Farmers don't like it, no.
00:45:17Maintaining a worker
00:45:18in conditions analogous to slavery
00:45:19It means not complying.
00:45:21labor legislation,
00:45:22failure to comply with tax legislation.
00:45:24The worker will not receive
00:45:26their salaries,
00:45:27No guarantee fund is collected.
00:45:29the worker will not be entitled
00:45:30on vacation,
00:45:31INSS (Brazilian Social Security) is not collected.
00:45:33So you have
00:45:34enormous profitability,
00:45:36because any businessman
00:45:38who carries out their activity
00:45:41in accordance with the law
00:45:43It has a cost.
00:45:44And that businessman
00:45:46who does not carry out their activity,
00:45:48that does not move its activity
00:45:50in accordance with the law,
00:45:51has a product
00:45:52much cheaper
00:45:53to put on the market,
00:45:55because the cost
00:45:56of this production,
00:45:57whatever it may be,
00:45:58It's much smaller.
00:46:08And when are we going?
00:46:09in an operation like this
00:46:10remove the worker
00:46:11from there,
00:46:12The action is effective.
00:46:14You go there,
00:46:15removes the worker,
00:46:16causes the worker
00:46:17receive
00:46:19those rights
00:46:20that he has
00:46:21that are planned
00:46:22in the legislation.
00:46:23I.e,
00:46:23you see
00:46:24the thing is working,
00:46:26You solve the problem.
00:46:28removes the worker
00:46:29and provides a better condition
00:46:31to that worker.
00:46:32Because we were
00:46:32at 15 days,
00:46:33then the 15 days
00:46:34It was the entity that the federal government...
00:46:34He made him pay.
00:46:3515 days for us inside.
00:46:36The Labor Office
00:46:38determined the payment
00:46:39of the overdue salary
00:46:40and the compensation
00:46:41out of 80 employees.
00:46:43Each one received
00:46:44on average
00:46:45150 reais.
00:46:46I didn't have any more.
00:46:47hope of getting out of here
00:46:47more,
00:46:48no way.
00:46:49Ah, I'm very happy!
00:46:50thank God.
00:46:51He paid, he paid.
00:46:52The Ministry staff
00:46:54from work there
00:46:54they just left from there
00:46:56after they had agreed
00:46:57like all of us.
00:46:59The rescue
00:47:00of an enslaved worker
00:47:01It's not just the moment.
00:47:02under what labor rights
00:47:03are reunited,
00:47:05but it's the right
00:47:05in which human empathy
00:47:07she is found again
00:47:09and that's what we make clear
00:47:10so that the enslaved worker
00:47:13that he is not a thing,
00:47:14But he is a human being.
00:47:20It was in this house
00:47:21in a neighborhood of Salvador
00:47:22that Gabriela Silva
00:47:23she was kept prisoner
00:47:24for more than 10 years.
00:47:26Gabriela also said
00:47:27who was being assaulted
00:47:28and humiliated
00:47:28constantly for the family.
00:47:30She, her son, her husband,
00:47:33They all bumped into me.
00:47:34Then one day
00:47:35We were here.
00:47:35and it was on television
00:47:37Her suffering, you know?
00:47:38Then I said, beautiful,
00:47:40Renata is there.
00:47:41suffering in Salvador.
00:47:43He said, look,
00:47:43well we talked
00:47:44that she wasn't supposed to go,
00:47:46But she went with her.
00:47:47The teacher says
00:47:48that Gabriela has mental problems
00:47:50and that treats the young woman
00:47:51today, at 25 years old
00:47:53like a daughter.
00:47:54She can leave now.
00:47:55He came running here to hug me.
00:47:56And to ask for a thousand pardons, you understand?
00:47:57She has disorders.
00:47:59I'm going to prove all of this.
00:48:01We became aware
00:48:03through the press.
00:48:12And she was only rescued
00:48:14around 25 years old,
00:48:15because she didn't even have it.
00:48:17the idea of her age
00:48:18when she was rescued.
00:48:19Because she lost a little.
00:48:20the concept of time.
00:48:23He lived a long time.
00:48:27prisoner
00:48:28in a specific place.
00:48:33Then he took me there.
00:48:33support here,
00:48:35I stayed there,
00:48:36For support here.
00:48:38Then I came,
00:48:39I was looking for my family.
00:48:41When I got there,
00:48:42I was going to paint,
00:48:43well dressed.
00:48:45I'm telling you, boy,
00:48:46as you said the boss
00:48:48said he was there
00:48:50of mistreating?
00:48:53well hunted.
00:48:55I only speak my truth.
00:48:57I don't lie,
00:48:58it is not?
00:48:59What I don't know.
00:49:01Then they brought me here.
00:49:14My father was like that,
00:49:17for my parts,
00:49:18It was bad.
00:49:19that my father didn't...
00:49:23I had not accepted,
00:49:25he knows?
00:49:36sorry.
00:49:37No, no problem, no,
00:49:38My old friend.
00:49:43I'm going to arrive in Salvador.
00:49:45My father has been killing me.
00:49:46with a spike.
00:49:50She is waiting.
00:49:51with the one who had hit him,
00:49:53who had hit
00:49:53and it was all blue,
00:49:54to repair,
00:49:55I didn't see a scratch.
00:49:56where,
00:49:57nowhere.
00:49:58She said that she hit her,
00:50:00but I think she
00:50:02It didn't add up, did it?
00:50:05That's because she's a big liar.
00:50:07Right, Mom?
00:50:08He taught a role,
00:50:09said it was going to be
00:50:10Show yourself to me.
00:50:13Then I came to his house,
00:50:16Then I grabbed my things and left.
00:50:16back home
00:50:17Because of that.
00:50:19And in addition to the fall,
00:50:20The Kick,
00:50:21when she managed
00:50:22to be rescued,
00:50:23at that moment
00:50:24where it should be celebrated,
00:50:26she receives
00:50:27the biggest stab in the back
00:50:28that of the family,
00:50:29who did not accept
00:50:30she inside the house,
00:50:32out of sheer ignorance
00:50:33of her having appeared
00:50:34in the newspaper,
00:50:36of her having believable
00:50:39that she was
00:50:40very good in Salvador
00:50:41and that she having left
00:50:43from Salvador,
00:50:43She would be an added burden.
00:50:45take care
00:50:46there in the city of Cansanção.
00:50:48How did she even get here?
00:50:50She arrived with the clothes.
00:50:51of the body and a flip-flop.
00:50:52She didn't bring any clothes.
00:50:54Not even money,
00:50:56neither money,
00:50:56I think she didn't give it to her.
00:50:57because she got there
00:50:58in Guamê
00:50:58and there was a beggar
00:50:59of alms.
00:51:02Then my aunt
00:51:02I was saying
00:51:03that she liked
00:51:04a lot of her,
00:51:05but these people
00:51:06who live there,
00:51:07the person lives around here
00:51:08You don't know, do you?
00:51:08of their lives.
00:51:09That's because she's going to wash it.
00:51:10She did so much of it.
00:51:15She's going to wash it so much,
00:51:16both.
00:51:17I'm telling the truth, right?
00:51:20Misery
00:51:23blinded,
00:51:24took it off,
00:51:25It ripped away all dignity.
00:51:27of people,
00:51:29right,
00:51:30i.e,
00:51:31of this father,
00:51:32of this family
00:51:32what do you think it is
00:51:33normal
00:51:35take that girl
00:51:37to work
00:51:38For someone, right?
00:51:39All the ills
00:51:41that she went through,
00:51:42Gabriela
00:51:43she is solely responsible
00:51:44in the head
00:51:45from her family
00:51:47who doesn't have that awareness
00:51:48what is exploration
00:51:50of child labor,
00:51:52right,
00:51:53than what constitutes unlawful imprisonment.
00:51:55People still think
00:51:56They can do that, right?
00:51:58I think we still have
00:52:00a slave-owning culture
00:52:01that still is
00:52:02in the collective unconscious
00:52:03of the people.
00:52:05It's still very strong.
00:52:07because it's only 100 years
00:52:09of the abolition of slavery.
00:52:11It's a very short time, isn't it?
00:52:12for a story.
00:52:19I stayed
00:52:20from my little poop.
00:52:24I stayed there,
00:52:24I stayed there.
00:52:25I stayed with her.
00:52:26a year and a bit.
00:52:29Then after
00:52:30she also told me
00:52:31that I couldn't
00:52:31I'll stay there for a long time.
00:52:32and I arranged a year
00:52:33And I lived him more.
00:52:35I lived with him.
00:52:3515 years old,
00:52:36then I started
00:52:37to catch him too,
00:52:38I separated from him as well.
00:52:42That's where I came to live.
00:52:43here on Song
00:52:44A year alone too.
00:52:46Then I got this one,
00:52:48So I'm living with this.
00:52:49She doesn't have
00:52:50no type
00:52:51reference
00:52:52family.
00:52:54That much was not enough.
00:52:55through creation,
00:52:56due to a lack of creativity,
00:52:57because they silenced her
00:52:58from family life,
00:53:01as well
00:53:02she doesn't have
00:53:02no training,
00:53:04She is semi-illiterate.
00:53:05she only knows
00:53:05write her name,
00:53:07since she doesn't have
00:53:08no possibility
00:53:09insertion
00:53:10in the job market
00:53:10Absolutely not.
00:53:12So she's a ghost.
00:53:14She is a real
00:53:15wretched
00:53:16in the literal sense
00:53:17of the word.
00:53:18Even her grace,
00:53:20her name,
00:53:21They took it from her.
00:53:21They took everything from her.
00:53:31I have it from time to time.
00:53:33That's how I see it,
00:53:35Some roses, right?
00:53:36Sometimes at night
00:53:37that I don't sleep,
00:53:37I was left with a problem.
00:53:38I don't sleep at night.
00:53:40I was saying
00:53:40until it was going to pass
00:53:41once,
00:53:41to apply medicine
00:53:42for me.
00:53:42I walk all night.
00:53:43And I walk from home.
00:53:45The neighbors from there
00:53:46Everything is kept in perspective.
00:53:46that I go out and do everything.
00:53:48It's a dish,
00:53:49It's something like that,
00:53:50I wash the dishes.
00:53:51with nothing to do.
00:53:51Tomorrow I went up like this,
00:53:52I can't sleep.
00:53:53at night.
00:54:04Physical violence
00:54:07mistreats
00:54:08and the brands
00:54:11are noticeable
00:54:12in most cases.
00:54:14But the violence
00:54:15psychological,
00:54:17moral coercion,
00:54:18also leaves
00:54:20indelible marks.
00:54:21today I think
00:54:22that Gabriela
00:54:22it becomes firm
00:54:24out of necessity
00:54:25raising children,
00:54:27by that
00:54:28innate strength
00:54:30from the mother,
00:54:31human being,
00:54:32wanting to take care
00:54:33of your offspring,
00:54:34take care of your own.
00:54:38I have a daughter.
00:54:39seven years old,
00:54:40a boy
00:54:40four years
00:54:42and a girl
00:54:43four months.
00:54:45Jameson,
00:54:47Graziella
00:54:47and Maria Vitória.
00:54:51The boy from Renatoi,
00:54:52I've never seen them.
00:54:53hungry,
00:54:54because many people
00:54:55Do charity for her.
00:54:56I've never seen them.
00:54:57dirty walkers.
00:54:58And that girl
00:54:58Go straight to school.
00:55:00Monday itself
00:55:01I was there,
00:55:02I saw them very clean,
00:55:03nicely shod.
00:55:05The woman of her concept
00:55:06He said he was going to take it.
00:55:07her children,
00:55:07Because she walks really fast.
00:55:09But that's who we are.
00:55:10isn't it better to ask?
00:55:11than to steal,
00:55:11because the person is stealing
00:55:12He's going to jail.
00:55:13and asking no.
00:55:14She doesn't want me to take it off.
00:55:15her children,
00:55:16because she knows
00:55:17what is that,
00:55:19How do I know?
00:55:20What are we?
00:55:21to be removed
00:55:22from our mother,
00:55:23from our father,
00:55:24to take from our brothers
00:55:25and separate,
00:55:27take to places
00:55:28different.
00:55:30And that's where the family stayed.
00:55:31completely unstructured,
00:55:32right?
00:55:33And she herself
00:55:34with the situation
00:55:34of poverty,
00:55:36threat
00:55:37to take
00:55:37the children
00:55:39but she has
00:55:40that affection
00:55:41for the child,
00:55:42care
00:55:42that she has.
00:55:43Her children
00:55:44It's all very clean,
00:55:45everything all tidy,
00:55:47that she without having,
00:55:49she is looking for
00:55:50give your best,
00:55:51even without having it.
00:55:52Imagine if she
00:55:53had the best
00:55:54to give to her children,
00:55:56right?
00:56:05I was talking to her,
00:56:07like this,
00:56:07a difficult life
00:56:08that she drinks
00:56:09and the husband
00:56:10doesn't work,
00:56:11she could fix it
00:56:11a job
00:56:12and work
00:56:14to survive
00:56:15plus the husband,
00:56:15because that boy
00:56:17small doesn't tie,
00:56:18that the husband
00:56:19doesn't work,
00:56:20she could fix it
00:56:20a house
00:56:20of a mother of a family
00:56:22to be working.
00:56:24Until I started working here,
00:56:25I am scared,
00:56:26I'm terrified.
00:56:26to work,
00:56:27like I said,
00:56:28I'm terrified,
00:56:30I went through what I went through,
00:56:32did you understand?
00:56:32That's when I get scared.
00:56:34And she is there.
00:56:36surviving
00:56:37from Bolsa Família
00:56:38and coconut candy
00:56:39what she does
00:56:40for sale,
00:56:42And then paying rent,
00:56:44has the baby's milk
00:56:45that has days
00:56:46that she doesn't have
00:56:46The baby's milk.
00:56:48Then,
00:56:48she really is
00:56:49in a situation
00:56:50out of sheer poverty,
00:56:55poverty situation.
00:56:56if the cause of it
00:56:58left,
00:56:59That's it,
00:57:01wins,
00:57:01But it doesn't work.
00:57:02The case of Gabriela
00:57:04is located
00:57:04in the Superior Court
00:57:05of Work
00:57:05waiting

00:57:09from a magazine

00:57:23own individual
00:57:24that was admitted
00:57:25by the Union
00:57:26Domestic Workers.
00:57:33What she was entitled to
00:57:34in terms of
00:57:35labor-related payments,
00:57:37rescissory,
00:57:38we asked
00:57:39a salary
00:57:39for the entire period,
00:57:40because she never
00:57:42He received a salary.
00:57:43We are

00:57:44of process,
00:57:46in the execution phase.
00:57:48Now,

00:57:53and the transition
00:57:55through research
00:57:56of the registry offices
00:57:57of property registration,
00:57:58We couldn't.
00:57:58still detect
00:57:59an effective property
00:58:00that comes to do
00:58:01front
00:58:01to that debt.
00:58:04I'll tell you
00:58:05for you
00:58:05which is impossible
00:58:06that a family
00:58:07at a moment
00:58:08execution
00:58:09procedural
00:58:09don't have
00:58:10one real
00:58:10into a bank account.
00:58:12Don't have
00:58:13a registered car
00:58:14in the name.
00:58:14Don't have
00:58:15no company.
00:58:17The statements
00:58:18of the last three years
00:58:19income tax
00:58:19that we
00:58:20investigated,
00:58:21nothing,
00:58:21There's nothing there.
00:58:25It doesn't exist.
00:58:26a family
00:58:26how they had
00:58:27a standard of living
00:58:28like this
00:58:28evaporate everything
00:58:29one hour
00:58:30to the other.
00:58:31That's really it.
00:58:32was transferred,
00:58:33they transferred
00:58:33the assets.
00:58:35But like this,
00:58:36like light
00:58:38at the end of the tunnel
00:58:39that I see,
00:58:39we're going
00:58:41hold accountable,
00:58:43since Maria Helena
00:58:44he died,
00:58:44the children.
00:58:46That the right
00:58:47He also assists us.
00:58:48It is possible
00:58:49that it doesn't happen
00:58:50nothing?
00:58:52AND.
00:58:54But
00:58:55That's what we have to do.
00:58:57We're going
00:58:58until the end.
00:59:00And there,
00:59:00which way
00:59:01we
00:59:03he follows
00:59:04so that
00:59:04Gabriela
00:59:05come and receive
00:59:06this compensation
00:59:07and to be able to structure
00:59:08her children's lives
00:59:10so that she has
00:59:11a decent life,
00:59:12her children
00:59:13have a life
00:59:13better than
00:59:14what she had.

00:59:17The case really
00:59:19He is moving.
00:59:21and brings
