Mangue: Uma Parte Da Raiz (2010)
Chico Science, Nação Zumbi, and their manguebeat. This is the theme of the documentary. The film explores the story of an artist, a band, and a musical genre that emerged in the early '90s, blending the roots of Brazilian culture with contemporary and international influences. As a result, the art, cinema, and especially the sound known as "manguebeat" stood out in the country's music scene as something entirely unique, original, and inspiring.

It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.
I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.
Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction
The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
