Durante el vibrante caos del Carnaval en Río, los jóvenes amantes Orfeo y Eurídice intentan escapar de un sicario disfrazado de la Muerte y de la celosa prometida de Orfeo. Este drama romántico reinterpreta un mito griego clásico con una banda sonora de bossa nova, mezclando fantasía y realidad.

Reviewer notes
RecommendedTrusted family reviewersI reckon this was always going to be a bit of a creatively risky venture and for me: a Frenchman moving a Greek myth to the culturally diverse Brazil was always going to be quite an ask.
