🇧🇷THE SECRET AGENT - with English subtitles and drinks

The Secret Agent won Best Actor and Best Director at the Cannes Film Festival and is nominated for the Oscar for Best International Feature Film.

► ABOUT THE FILM
The story takes place during Brazil’s military dictatorship. Widower and professor Armando (Wagner Moura), seeking to escape political persecution, finds refuge in Recife alongside other exiles. Meanwhile, his son is being raised in the same city by his father-in-law. Elsa, the leader of an underground resistance movement, realizes that Armando’s situation is more precarious than he knows and offers to help him flee the country.

Filmed in Panavision, this thriller elevates the hallmarks of Mendonça Filho’s work to new heights: intergenerational family portraits, a perfect balance of humor and depth, a sharp exploration of Brazil’s past and present, his love of genre-blending, and meticulous reconstruction of specific locations and environments.

Reminder: film with a short introduction starts at 19.00 sharp!
