Book

Join the Cinema Lumieré for a special screening of Sweet Thieves. After assaulting a Hollywood film crew, a group of residents of a community in Rio de Janeiro decided to produce a film about the 1789 revolution known as Inconfidência Mineira. The favela’s inhabitants play the 18th-century colonial elite and in doing so carnavalise history while re-telling it on their terms. The screening will be introduced by Natalia Sobrino Christofoletti Barrenha.
