Our take
Impressionistic collage meets contextual interview in this eye-opening introduction to one of the great movements in Latin American cinema. Incredible clips abound, testifying to a utopian creative crusade that took to the streets of Brazil with camera in hand and revolutionary zeal in its heart.
