Jorge Amado, Zélia Gattai
Jorjamado no Cinema foi feito para um programa de televisão consagrado ao escritor Jorge Amado. Nesse documentário, Jorge Amado é filmado em sua casa, rodeado por sua numerosa família; numa livraria, durante uma sessão de autógrafos de um de seus livros, em um cinema em Salvador, na avant-première do filme Tenda dos Milagres, de Nelson Pereira dos Santos, adaptação do livro homônimo de Jorge Amado. Glauber filma seu amigo com muito humor e carinho. A câmera vai evoluindo lentamente, sem cessar e com rapidez sobre o escritor, seus familiares, atores e atrizes do filme de Nelson, além de passar por objetos de rituais de candomblé que constituem o museu de Jorge Amado.

Tieta do Agreste
Carlos Diegues
Sônia Braga, Marília Pêra
Just when her family starts believing that she is dead, and that they can expect a rich heritage, Tieta returns from São Paulo to her native village in Bahia, which she had been forced to leave long ago because of some involvement with a goat herd. Believed to be fabulously rich - and nobody knows how - she brings to the great disappointment of her family a young step-daughter and heir. With the arrival of Tieta turmoil enters into the life of her family and their fellow villagers. Most particularly into the life of her nephew - promised to the Church - and the young aspiring mayor.
