Nominated for four Oscars® including Best Picture and Best Actor, Kleber Mendonça Filho’s anarchic political thriller stars Wagner Moura as Marcelo, a father on the run from a mysterious past amid the vibrant cultural landscape of 1970s Brazil. Arriving in Recife during Carnival, he is swept into a dizzying world of colour, commotion, and secrets.

 

Mixing taut suspense with sly absurdism, this epoch-defining marvel reconstructs memories of the Brazilian military dictatorship in vivid colors.
