Lucia Nagib presents a comprehensive critical survey of Brazilian
film production since the mid 1990s, which has become known as the
"renaissance of Brazilian cinema". Besides explaining the recent
boom, this book elaborates on the new aesthetic tendencies of
recent productions, as well as their relationships to earlier
traditions of Brazilian cinema. Internationally acclaimed films,
such as "Central Station", "Seven Days in September" and "Orpheus",
are analysed alongside daringly experimental works, such as
"Chronically Unfeasible", "Starry Sky" and "Perfumed Ball".
Contributors include Carlos Diegues, Robert Stam, Laura Mulvey and
Jose Carlos Avellar.
