6.1Ruído das Minas was produced by journalists Filipe Sartoreto, Gracielle Fonseca, and Rafael Sette Câmara as a graduation project in Social Communication at Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG). The film gained visibility after being screened at the first IN-EDIT Brazil International Music Documentary Festival in June and July 2009, in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. This exposure led to an invitation from MTV Brasil, and the documentary was later broadcast as part of the channel’s Doc.MTV programming block, dedicated to music documentaries. Heavy guitars, long hair, crosses, and demons: heavy metal from Minas Gerais became one of Brazil’s most influential scenes. Belo Horizonte gave rise to bands such as Overdose, Sarcófago, and one of the biggest metal acts in the world, Sepultura. Ruído das Minas tells this story through the voices of those who lived the early days of heavy metal in the state capital firsthand.
