SCREENING BRAZIL: Entranced Earth

https://squ.at/r/67n7

SCREENING BRAZIL is a one week program with the best of Brazilian cinema, showcasing both contemporary and avant-garde classic films. The program pays special attention to the deep political crisis taking place in one of the world’s largest countries.
 

Entranced Earth (Glauber Rocha | 1967 | Brazil | 111')
Eldorado, a fictitious country in Latin America, is sparkling with the internal struggle for political power. In the eye of this social convulsion, the jaded journalist Paulo Martins opposes two equally corrupt political candidates: a pseudo-populist and a conservative. In this context, Paulo is torn between the madness of the elite and the blind submission of the masses. But, in this complex tropical reality, nothing really is what it seems to be.
