Nominated for 3 Golden Globes including Best Motion Picture—Drama and Best Performance by a Male Actor in a Motion Picture—Drama (Wagner Moura)

Kleber Mendonça Filho’s darkly comic political thriller not only won Best Director and Actor (Wagner Moura) at Cannes this year but also scored 100% on Rotten Tomatoes. A teacher marked for death by Brazil’s military dictators in 1977 returns home to Recife, a coastal city whose citizens, traumatized by disappearing friends and Spielberg’s Jaws, are about to celebrate Carnival. A FilmColumbia25 selection.

“A rousing, suspenseful, occasionally hilarious, and ultimately unnerving 160-minute tale of battling political oppression.” — Bob Mondello, NPR
“Kleber Mendonça Filho embraces a freewheeling sensibility, and finds laughter amid the terror.” — Manohla Dargis, The New York Times
