    About Brazilian Mystery Movies

    Brazilian cinema

    Brazilian cinema's Cinema Novo movement of the 1960s tied filmmaking directly to social critique, a thread that runs through to the urban dramas that broke internationally in the 2000s.

    Mystery

    Mystery films are structured around withheld information, trusting the audience to work alongside the investigator. The genre ranges from cozy whodunits to bleak, unresolved character studies.
