Pas loin de la note de 9! Une atmosphère, un jeu d’acteurs au top dans le Brésil des années 70 d’une violence et corruption totale. On ne voit pas le temps passé avec une 1ere scène dingue et un final émouvant
Synopsis
Brazil, 1977. Marcelo, a technology expert in his early 40s, is on the run. He arrives in Recife during carnival week, hoping to reunite with his son but soon realizes that the city is far from being the non violent refuge he seeks.
