Podcast #80 - Eu sou eu e minhas circunstâncias, em 'O Menino que Descobriu o Vento'

Baseados nessa profunda sentença de Ortega y Gasset, Jota Borgonhoni e Francisco Escorsim comentam o filme "O Menino que Descobriu o Vento". Pois se vamos falar sobre salvar as circunstâncias e descobrir a potência de transformação do eu, não há história melhor que de William Kamkwamba: o menino que enfrentou dificuldades, e até a própria família, e criou um moinho de vento, salvando a si mesmo e toda sua aldeia.
