NOTES

In May of 1968, a team of American medical doctors arrived in a small plateau village of Brazil with extensive medical equipment to study a peasant named Arigo, whose cures and surgery had been reported to be nothing short of miraculous! What they uncovered was a story that defies belief and yet is a true story. This is the documented account of a man who cured hundreds of thousands of sick and dying and yet was prosecuted by the government under which he lived and ostracized by the church in which he fervently believed. This is the story of Arigo- one of the greatest healers of all time
