Storyline

A deep investigation, in the way of a poetic essay, on one of the main Latin American movements in cinema, analyzed via the thoughts of its main authors, who invented, in the early 1960s, a new way of making movies in Brazil, with a political attitude, always near to people's problems, that combined art and revolution.

RTVillage VoiceAug 23, 2017

In the end, Rocha succeeds at communicating the restless spirit - if not quite the underlying substance - of the movement he documents.

Chloe Walker

RTFilm InquiryOct 4, 2017

Rocha weaves together a wide array of clips with a lyricism which illustrates how the individual movies made up the larger movement.

J

Jordi Costa

RTEl Pais (Spain)Jan 26, 2017

A heterodox documentary that runs away from didacticism to let the images speak for themselves and the words of their creators articulate a discourse that ends up talking about the essentials. [Full review in Spanish]
