The Leon Hirszman film Partido Alto in its entirety (22 minutes). Featuring Candeia, Paulinho da Viola, Wilson Moreira, Tantinho da Mangueira, Velha, Casquinha and all the cats from the Partido em 5 recordings, among others. It's an amazing documentary about partido alto, explained by none other than the legendary Candeia and his cohorts. Also includes some narration by Paulinho da Viola. It's wonderful to see these cats playing in their own backyard. Some nice dance steps in this one as well. Check out Wilson Moreira doing the "miudinho" and Tantinho da Mangueira doing the "amoladinho"!
The film was made just before Candeia's death in 1978, I believe. A film database lists the film as being released in 1982.
