Between the last dictatorial term and the Sarney government, musicians, actors, visual artists and all kinds of people emerged wanting to express themselves through art. Contradictorily, one of Sarney's first acts in power is to censor a work by filmmaker Jean-Luc Godard, a pioneer of the Nouvelle Vague.
