São
Paulo and its street poets. To
the rhythm and rhymes of musical improvised poetry, journalist or
simple maid, art-gallery director or cab driver, the immigrants from
the Northeast tell us the beat of the megalopolis. A fan’s review : This is a very beautiful poetic film about the
largest city in South America, Sao Paulo told from the perspective of
its largest migrant population the Nordestinos. Filled with startling
music (forro, repente, embolada) and a cast of warm and humorous
characters - it is a Latcho Drom like journey into a mostly ignored
side of Brasilian culture. Tremendously photographed and edited a total
must have for lovers of all Brasilian, and indeed documentary. Just
watched it and I have a very big smile on my face. to
