Black God White Devil

The life of a Brazilian fugitive couple in the 1940s is grittily portrayed by director Glauber Rocha. After killing his boss when he tries to cheat him out of his wages, Manuel (Geraldo Del Rey) escapes to a life on the road with his wife Rosa (Yona Magalhaes). As they wander the country, stealing and killing as the need arises, they try to find their place in a Brazil teetering under the weight of corruption and unremitting violence.
