In 1967, de Andrade was invited by the Italian firm Olivetti to produce a documentary on the new Brazilian capital city of Brasília. Constructed during the latter fifty percent of the 1950s and also established in 1960, the city became part of an effort to occupy Brazil's vast interior region as well as was to be the embodiment of democratic urban planning, free from the class departments and inequalities that characterize numerous cities. Unsurprisingly, Brasília, Contradições de uma Cidade Nova (Brasília, Oppositions of a New City, 1968) disclosed Brasília to be utopic just for the rich, duplicating the exact same social troubles existing in every Brazilian city.
