A group of young Brazilian filmmakers in the 1960s said ‘Sim!’. Inspired by the Cuban revolution and new waves of cinema across the world, they created a radical movement with the aim of transforming Latin America. This session takes you on a tour of Brazilian cinema highlighting its connections with Cuba and the role of seminal director, Glauber Rocha.
