"Araby", by Affonso Uchoa and João Dumans 
Opens June 22  - Theatrical Release
Film Society Lincoln Center 
 



Araby begins by observing the day-to-day of Andre, a teenager who lives in an industrial area in the Brazilian state of Minas Gerais. After a local factory worker, Cristiano, has an accident on the job, he leaves behind a handwritten journal, which the boy proceeds to read with relish. The film shifts into road-movie mode to recount the story of Cristiano, an ex-con and eternal optimist who journeys across Brazil in search of work, enduring no shortage of economic hardship but gaining an equal amount of self-knowledge. Invigorating and ever surprising, Araby is a humanist work of remarkable poise and maturity. A 2017 New Directors/New Films selection. A Grasshopper Film release. 


MOVIE
"Gabriel and the Mountain"

A film byFelipe Barbosa





Based on the true story of a close friend of director Fellipe Barbosa, this beautifully photographed travelogue recreates the fateful final journey of a young Brazilian.
