Veredas: A Generation of Brazilian Filmmakers
December 6 - 11, 2019
In this singular take on counterculture in the northeast of Brazil, three outcasts use clandestine radio transmissions to communicate their hunger for freedom and revolution.
The third collaboration between brothers Ricardo and Luiz Pretti (While We Are Here) and cousins Pedro Diogenes and Guto Parente (The Cannibals Club) is a singular take on counterculture in the northeast of Brazil. In the city of Fortaleza, Eugenio, Joaquim, and João use clandestine radio transmissions to communicate their hunger for freedom and revolution, hacking traditional stations with poetry, rebellious music, quotes, and provocations, targeting the bourgeois society of their hometown. One day, however, a mysterious listener (Neon Bull‘s Samya De Lavor) appears in their lives, transforming their destinies.
Playing as part of Veredas: A Generation of Brazilian Filmmakers, December 6-11. See showtimes & get tickets.
