A História COMPLETA de Lampião | Da Ascensão à Queda Assim Foi (na Época de Lampião)

Virgulino Ferreira da Silva was born on a farm in Serra Talhada, Pernambuco. He played the accordion, worked with leather, and had an ordinary life ahead of him. Until the day injustice destroyed his family and the backlands exacted their price. In this video, we tell the COMPLETE story of Lampião — from his humble childhood in Serra Talhada to the fatal dawn in Grota do Angico in July 1938. His entry into Sinhô Pereira's gang, the origin of his nickname, his first major action in Água Branca, his expansion throughout the Northeast, his encounter with Padre Cícero in 1926, his defeat in Mossoró, the arrival of Maria Bonita, Benjamin Abrahão's documentary, the tightening of the net with radio and roads, the mourning for the death of Padre Cícero, and the ambush in Grota do Angico that ended almost twenty years of banditry and decreed the end of an era in the northeastern backlands. The real, complete, and unsimplified story of the King of Cangaço. 🔔 Subscribe to the channel for more true stories about Lampião, Padre Cícero, and the northeastern backlands.
