In a career spanning over forty years Maria Bethania has sold over 28 million albums. Beloved of Brazilians for her expressive and dusky voice, The Voice of Brazil captures the artist as she spends time with family, records a new CD and prepares for a major concert. Interviews with her mother and brother Caetano Veloso shed light on her life and her passions. Through it all, Maria Bethania herself demonstrates her feelings about music as she slides seamlessly from prose to poetry to song.
