"(…) This book is a reflection on the disco-manifesto Tropicália, but also a reflection of what he sowed. The different approaches, styles, views and graphic creations from its twelve songs, illustrate, in its diverse mosaic, how those achievements embodied in our cultural reality the spirit of invention, mixing, of vital affirmation of our potential.
The Panis et Circensis was just the beginning. "
