The biography of Pere Casaldàliga narrates his arrival in São Félix do Araguaia, Brazil, in 1968, where he sought to fulfill his dream of being a missionary. However, his life as a Claretian priest in Francoist Spain did not prepare him for the reality of Mato Grosso. Over forty years, Casaldàliga became a bishop committed to liberation theology, confronting the military dictatorship, local powers, and the Vatican. This book explores who persecuted him, why they tried to kill him, and how a religious man became a weapon against power.
