great movie unbelievable low budget

I knew nothing of this terrific low budget film before I saw it by chance in a Rio de Janeira movie festival. Recommend 2 U all :P great action and respect the audience (not so common)!! The film offers a new approach to Brazilian reality, as it follows our hero, Miguel (great actor Eron Cordeiro) through his retribution journey, and shows how violence just spirals into more violence with the disturbingly high amounts of prejudice in southern Brazilian tradition. The story, the direction, the cinematography, the editing and the acting all add up to make a excellent movie that I would recommend to all. Not to mention the leading actress...

an excellent, emotionally and technically mature low budget movie

This movie was shot with a standard video camera. Yet, the pictures appear powerful like in a big production. The actors were completely unknown to me and probably did their job for very little (or no) money. Yet, they act extremely well. I could list half a dozen of features that were made very well but supposedly have not cost a lot of money. In my opinion, this is low-budget at its best. But beyond the technical aspects, the movie also offers a very enthralling way of telling a rousing story. It's a story of love and crime and suitable for a broad audience. The turns and twists of the plot keep you interested at all times. In all, the movie makes a very professional piece of work. It gives me the hope that low-budget quality is generally on the rise. I sure hope to see more alike in the future.
