- Guillermo Locke is an American anthropology student traveling to Brazil for the first time to study its "culture of violence" for his thesis. " Mestre" is a poor but respected community leader and master teacher of Capoeira (ka' pou ey' ra), a Brazilian tradition of martial arts and dance. Namibia is Mestre's whimsical 12-year-old daughter. The lives of all three are changed forever as they cross paths amidst the paradoxical, spiritual, and celebratory backdrop of Carnival.
- "A young Brazilian girl called Namibia tells her dad the tale of a famous tragedy which took place many decades earlier on the opposite side of the world. Her unique interpretation of such tragedy shows that it will never be forgotten, but it also teaches a lesson of wisdom and hope that crosses all borders of time, language, geography and ancestry. "Namibia, Brasil" is a magical father and daughter story dedicated to the human cause and its struggles to keep going."
