Synopsis

One of the high points of Brazil's cinema novo, this wicked black comedy inspired a furor at Cannes. A French explorer is captured by an Amazon tribe and tries desperately to be accepted by his captors. The tribe feeds him well--only at the end does the Frenchman realize why. A brilliant satire on the Colonialist mentality. "A perversely innocent fable from one of the most outlandish filmmaking personalities of the Third World" (Village Voice) . In French and Tupi with English subtitles. Nelson Pereira dos Santos---Brazil---1971---80 mins.

French soldier in early colonial Bfazil is captured by naked Indians who fatten him up to eat. Plot sounds revolting, but the film is actually quite idyllic.
