Cidade Baixa
Produced by Walter Salles, director of 2004's Oscar-nominated The Motorcycle Diaries, this visceral drama set in Brazil follows two childhood friends entangled in a steamy love triangle with an exotic dancer. Temptation, lust and jealousy make this volatile situation explosive as the two friends, Deco and Naldinho (Lazaro Ramos and Wagner Moura), vie for the affection of the tantalizing Karinna, played by City of God's Alice Braga. Subtitles will be available!
