- A história de Zezé Di Camargo & Luciano (The 2 sons of
Francisco) is a film about the childhood and rise to fame of Zezé Di
Camargo & Luciano, popular Brazilian singers of sertanejo music. The
film was directed by Breno Silveira. Perhaps a better title would be 3
Filhos de Francisco since the film is also about their brother Emival
who sang with Zezé (Mirosmar) until his tragic death in a car accident.
The film has been very successful in Brazil since its launch in August 2005 and has been selected as the Brazilian entry for 'Best Foreign Film' for the 2006 Oscars. A DVD has now been released with English and Spanish subtitles. The actors/singers who play the sons Mirosmar and Emival (Dablio Moreira and Marcos Henrique) sing a few songs during the film including 'O dia em que eu sair de casa' (The day I left home) and 'Tristeza do Jeca', however they do not sing on the soundtrack where the songs are sung by Zezé Di Camargo & Luciano, and in some cases are awful live versions. However Dablio Moreira and Marcos Henrique are releasing a CD where they sing 4 song together and 4 songs each with their usual partners. Marcos Henrique sings with his brother Santiel and already has a CD recorded a couple of years ago (click here for more details). As soon as this new CD is released I will add details here. The soundtrack does contain a nice version of 'Saudade de Brejeira' sung by Caetano Veloso and also the popular oldie 'Como Vai Você?' by Mário and Antonio Marcos. A version of this song has recently been recorded by 12 year old Adair Cardoso and is available on the the Jovens Talentos tribute CD and DVD to the Jovem Guarda. more details...

Synopsis The film starts with Francisco (played by Ângelo Antonio) and his wife (Dona Helena played by Dira Paes) living in the countryside in the interior of Brazil in the state of Goias. The house used in the film is the actual house in which they lived, including the table on which Francisco keeps his radio and dreams that his sons will one day sing on it. Francisco buys his oldest sons Mirosmar (Zezi) and Emival a sanfonia and guitar but realizes that they need to move to the city to have a chance of success.
The family sell up and move to the state capital Goiânia, but Francisco is unable to earn enough money and the family go hungry. Mirosmar and Emival performing under the name of Camargo e Camarguinho go busking and meet a business man named Miranda (played by José Dumont) who decides to promote them. He persuades their father to let him take the boys on tour, but after several months Francisco and his wife have heard no news of them and received no money. In the end the boys return but a rift develops between Francisco and Miranda. This is eventually resolved and the boys go on tour again this time using the names 'Daby e Diebersson'. It is during this tour that Ernival is killed in a car accident.
Mirosmar returns home and decides he no longer wants to sing and tells his father to exchange the sanfonia for a TV. His father doesn't, but nevertheless it is a year before Mirosmar decides to continue singing. It is at this point in the film that the part of Mirosmar is taken over by the actor Márcio Keeling. Mirosmar, now singing with the name Zezé, is followed about and idolized by his younger brother Luciano (played by Wigor Lima) who works as a shoe-shine boy. Zezé gets married, moves to São Paulo and records his first LP as a solo artist. He is joined later by his brother Luciano (now played by actor Thiago Mendonça). Performing together they manage to get a contract with Copacabana Records and record their first hit 'E o Amor'. The film ends with the guest appearance of Zezé di Camargo & Luciano, their mother and father and brothers and sisters.
