Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for people who'll be humming afterwards and people who love a true story told well. The music is woven into the story, not just laid on top.
The mood
Eye-opening.
The pace
Well paced for a documentary, at 1 hr 20 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
What might put you off
  • It's in Portuguese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Skip it if you want made-up drama tonight.

This documentary is about the artistic trajectory of Edvaldo Souza, aka Edy star, the flamboyant gay singer, actor, dancer, theatrical producer, performer, visual artist and the last of the Kavernistas alive. The script mixes the memories of artists, friends and Edy himself, meeting in a studio with the singer and composer Zeca Baleiro.
