Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
If you count yourself among anyone who likes secrets inside secrets and people who'll be humming afterwards, this one's for you. Nobody is quite who they seem. Same wavelength as Selena Gomez: My Mind & Me or Summer of Soul (...Or, When the Revolution Could Not Be Televised). The music is woven into the story, not just laid on top.
The mood
Eye-opening.
The pace
Moves through the story clearly, at 1 hr 29 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
What might put you off
  • It's in Portuguese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Skip it if you want made-up drama tonight.

Between scenes from his concert in São Paulo's oft-inaccessible Theatro Municipal, rapper and activist Emicida celebrates the rich legacy of Black Brazilian culture.
