The Devil in the Backlands: 1: The Fanatics

on BBC Television

Three films by Adrian Cowell.
From the stoic cowboys of the backlands of north-east Brazil come bands of pilgrims-among them mad prophets, flagellators, and armed men-who wander incessantly across the barren countryside waiting for the reincarnation in 1970 of their dead Saint.
