This is the gripping and brief saga of a young man who claims to be the reincarnation of Gurcius Gewdner. Spiritism, spontaneous combustion, love, mutated chickens, animated credits, copyright and image violations, as well as a skillful use of cinematic language characterize this, which is the best documentary ever made. A critical and public success, it has been banned in over 153 countries. This documentary produced in 2011 perfectly closes this lineup of Gurcius Gewdner's early films, serving as almost a revisiting reflection of a passionate and cynical filmmaker who saw special interest in fake documentaries as a chance to produce films with zero budget, always with the kuchar brothers in his heart. It is also a vote of hope for the emergence of new directors, touched by the spark of creation when watching these films by Gurcius Gewdner in the early 2000s.
