Marcelo (Lucas Leto), Zuleica (Aline Borges), Roberto (Caue Campos) and Renato (Gabriel Santana). Globe Disclosure
In the next chapters of “wetland“, Roberto (Caue Campos) will say goodbye to the storyline after an unexpected attack by an anaconda. Tenório’s son (Murilo Benício) was trying to find out more about recording José Lucas (Irandhir Santos) when he accidentally died.
The accident happens when Roberto is on a boat next to Solano (Rafael Sieg). The young man doesn’t know, but the farmer is actually an assassin hired by Tenório.
The moment the boat crosses a place surrounded by trees, an anaconda (actually the Velho do Rio in its animal form) attacks the jagunço. Solano will end up falling into the water while fighting the beast, and Roberto will reach out to help him. Panicking, Solano eventually pulls Roberto too hard, and Tenório’s son will drown.
Desperate, Velho do Rio will not accept the death of an innocent person and will try to reverse the situation. “Come back boy come back it’s not your time! You don’t deserve this!”
When it realizes it cannot revive Roberto, the creature will say a prayer for the young man’s soul. “You are now free from this burden. Free from everything that doesn’t belong to you, that never belonged to you. You are free boy!”
Recordings
Actors Cauê Campos, Murilo Benício and Rafael Sig recently recorded the film tragic scenes of Roberto’s death. The young man is murdered by the gunman hired by his father, Tenório, and the fact will anger the peasant.
The scenes were captured in an eighthour day of shooting in the biome. According to Patricia Kogut’s column, stuntmen were hired for the drowning scenes.
Desperate at the death of his son, Tenório will not believe it and will have a crying crisis alongside Marcelo (Lucas Leto). “Why did this have to happen? Why my god? Come home, Roberto, come back to me.” The farmer then threatens to jump into the river, but his son stops him.
