Why watch this film?
Our suggestions
The young son ran from his dominant family, descends into decadence and then returns to the nest. With melodramatic themes of tyrannical fathers, incest, fierce family conflicts and an overheated and intense visual style to match.
"One of the best Brazilian movies ever produced. Great cinematography, poetic and great performances. Deserves to be seen and re-seen."
