A searing and energized portrait of one of Brazil's most divisive historical figures, Afro-Brazilian poet and politician, the legendary Carlos Marighella.

Driven to fight against the erosion of civil and human rights following the CIA-backed military coup of 1964 and the brutal, racist right-wing dictatorship that followed, the revolutionary leaves behind his wife and son to take up arms, becoming a notorious enemy to the power structure. Relentlessly pursued as the government's number one enemy, Marighella cleverly evades capture, all the while continuing to inflict damage and further enraging his sadistic pursuers.

NOTE BY THE PROGRAMMER
Beginning with a breathless, Robin Hood-style train robbery and ending with a highly provocative-and not for the faint of heart-final sequence, the directing debut of journalist, musician, and actor Wagner Moura (Elite Squad, Pablo Escobar in Narcos) is a searing and energized portrait of one of Brazil's most divisive historical figures, Afro-Brazilian poet and politician Carlos Marighella (actor/singer Seu Jorge, The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou). Driven to fight against the erosion of civil and human rights following the CIA-backed military coup of 1964 and the brutal right-wing dictatorship that followed, the revolutionary leaves behind wife Clara (Adriana Esteves) and son Carlinhos to take to the streets, soon authoring the highly influential Minimanual of the Urban Guerrilla, becoming a notorious enemy to the power structure-and being doggedly pursued by sadistic chief inspector Lucio (Bruno Gagliasso), before an untimely death in a dramatic police ambush in 1969. Co-written with Felipe Braga and produced by City Of God director Fernando Meirelles, Marighella has already become a lightning rod in its native Brazil at a time when the country is returning to the far-right authoritarianism Marighella himself fought against. An urgent call to action in an unsteady time, Marighella is not to be missed.
