Brazil

Charcoal

Carvão

Carolina Markowicz

An appealingly twisted crime-thriller in which a poor rural family agree to a diabolical deal to shelter an Argentinian drug lord. This Brazilian debut feature delivers a wry, politically astute domestic psychodrama.

Pictures of Ghosts

Retratos fantasmas

Kleber Mendonça Filho

Festival fave Kleber Mendonça Filho delivers a delightful cinematic love letter to his childhood home in Recife, the many old picture houses he used to frequent downtown and his lifelong passion for film.
