Carlos Diegues's ''Bye Bye Brasil'' is a psychological inventory of a country on the verge of extraordinary economic and industrial development, a travelogue through a nation that doesn't yet exist. Diegues , whose ''Summer Showers'' was seen in New York earlier this year, refuses to be alarmed by the advent of civilization or, as it's often represented in his film, by television, which now occupies the public for whom the members of the Caravana Rolidei once performed. Diegues appears to believe that nothing is quite as foolish or dangerous as passions out of control, perhaps in politics as well as in personal relationships.
