Neighboring Sounds is my favourite. It's the only movie I've ever watched that captures the psychology of living in a violent city: the mental load of constantly being in fear that something might happen to you, likely not today, but probably someday.

Bacurau is one of the best movies I’ve seen in recent memory and Pictures of Ghosts tells an amazing story about the history of Recife’s relationship to cinema.

Bacurau was quite a trip. I left that one pleasingly befuddled.

I liked Bacurau. The villains were a little stupid though. At some point after the brazilians mounted an armed resistance the americans basically gave up and started killing each other instead for no reason.

Still an extremely subversive film for modern Brazil which is dominated by a brand of leftism that wants to disarm the population. Without weapons, the americans would have genocided Bacurau and literally wiped it off the map.
