Moro No Brasil
To many of us Brazilian music and the Bossa Nova are one, but in this wonderful documentary Mika Kaurismaki pretty much ignores this genre in favour of the Forro, Frevo and Samba, exploring the Indian and African roots to the country's music through interaction with the real Brazilians who play it and live with it every day . An exciting and frenetically paced journey into a culture via its music, 'Moro No Brasil' will make you want get up and dance.
