Biography
Fábio Jr., stage name of Fábio Corrêa Ayrosa Galvão (São Paulo, November 21, 1953), is a Brazilian singer, composer, multi-instrumentalist and actor. Fábio Jr. began performing in São Paulo as a child on TV (Bandeirantes) and radio shows. In 1971, he adopted the stage name Uncle Jack and later Mark Davis, under which he recorded several singles sung in English, having success with "Don't Let Me Try" and "I Want to Be Free Again." In the late '70s, he adopted the stage name Fábio Jr. and became a popular leading man in soap operas, also adopting a mellifluous singing style and a repertory of romantic pop songs. His first LP, Fábio Júnior, came in 1976. He worked in the cinema (his most important assignment being Bye Bye Brasil, Cacá Diegues) and he also recorded in Spanish and hosted his own show at TV Record beginning in 1990. Among his many hits as an author/interpreter, "Vinte e Poucos Anos," "O Que é Que Há?" (with Sérgio Sá), and "Pai" are among the most successful. Since 1976, with a few exceptions, he has been recording an album per year.

In the tiny poor town of Asa Branca, in the middle of Brazilian Northeast, Roque Santeiro is worshiped as a saint. He was supposedly killed by a bandit, 18 years ago, trying to save the local church. After his disappearance, local leaderships such as landowner Sinhozinho Malta and mayor Florindo, took profit on that to control the humble population. They even make up a widow, Porcina, who should have married Roque secretly before his death. What they don't expect is that Roque is alive, and he's back to, allegedly, "save his people". Now Malta, Florindo, Porcina, and others must hold him down and explain the "truth" to their commoners, in a desperate attempt to save their own bottoms. Meanwhile, mysterious facts surround Asa Branca, such as a Werewolf, a film crew who are trying to shoot a movie about Roque's story, and violent murderers.Alma Gêmea
