overview
What is Macunaima about?
My! Such laziness!. Born a fully grown black man in a village in the Brazilian jungle, Macunaíma later magically transforms into a white man before making an adventure-filled trip to the city of São Paulo. Once there, he becomes something of a dandy, falling in love with Ci, a revolutionary who dies in an accidental bombing. After robbing a ruthless industrialist, Macunaima returns to his village where he finds his newly acquired knowledge and possessions of little use. It blends comedy, fantasy, adventure elements. The film reflects a distinct Brazil style and perspective. The story is brought to life by director Joaquim Pedro de Andrade. With a runtime of 1h 50m, it offers a comfortable feature-length experience.
