Morro da Mangueira, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil 1978.

Paulo Moura - short film 35 mm - by Paulo Martins from Paulo Martins on Vimeo.

A short documentary about Paulo Moura. Paulo, the multi-instrumentalist and composer, who happens to be the focus of the piece, is, in my opinion, not quite as interesting as the anonymous pandeiro player who opens this piece. Got to see this guys moves to believe it. Shot in 35 mm in one of the most historic favelas in Rio, this film takes viewers back to Brazil's golden age (musically, certainly not politically).
