Antonio das Mortes

March 8, 2020 8:00pm

Directed by Glauber Rocha | 1969
With Maurício do Valle, Odete Lara, Othon Basto

This boldly stylized Brazilian acid western from leading Cinema Novo renegade Glauber Rocha follows the titular desperado (who first appeared in Rocha’s Black God, White Devil) as he goes from mercenary soldier hunting down rebel peasants on behalf of the landowners to revolutionary hero fighting for the oppressed. A hallucinatory vision of awakening class consciousness, Antonio das Mortes blends Brazilian folk traditions and startling surrealism to create a potent modern myth.
