Brazil, 1977. Marcelo (Walter Moura), a technology expert in his early 40s, is on the run. He arrives in Recife during carnival week, hoping to reunite with his son but soon realizes that the city is far from being the non-violent refuge he seeks. Can Marcelo escape what’s coming for him? Winner of the Best Director and Best Actor prize at this year’s Cannes Film Festival, THE SECRET AGENT is a brilliant homage to the genre films of the past, a winning combination of style and thrills that will keep you guessing.
