Audacious Brazilian film

14 Dec

When checking the list of Oscar contenders , come something new in animation , the scene there is a Brazilian film : A Story of Love and Fury , joining politics, fiction and history.

Brazilian actors Selton Mello and Camila Pitanga are dubbing a couple in love at four different times of armed conflict , beginning in 1566 when Tupinabas are decimated by the Portuguese in Guanabara then jumped 200 years , the ” national hero ” Duque de Caxias contains the slave uprising of Maranhão ( besieged today by farmers colonels ) to Balaiada between 1968 and 1980 the military dictatorship that revisit life sentences of political prisoners , and finally give a jump from fiction to speak in 2096 of a Rio fully vertically January disputing drinking water routinely .

I have not seen the movie yet, but I think Luiz Bolognesi ( screenwriter in  Brainstorm – 2001 ) and The Best Things in the World -2010 , driven by the woman Lais Bodansky),  but now did something really new , and his films have call attention to criticism.

Does a Brazilian film will finally win the statuette Hollywood ? The film has already won in the first half of the Annecy Festival in France , known as the ” Cannes of animation .”
