Olha a Hora de Entrar na Roda

Overview

A dirty samba circle. Guided by the moment and edited from two shots without temporal cuts, the film expresses and vivifies in images the dynamics and traditions of Samba de Roda do Recôncavo Baiano, in Santiago do Iguape, district of the city of Cachoeira. With a handheld camera and free camera movements, he emphasizes the movement of the percussionists, the scream of the sambadores and the dance: “olha a hora de entrar na roda, a hora certa, viu!”
