Man Marked for Death, 20 Years Later

(Cabra Marcado para Morrer)

For the first time ever, making its Blu-ray debut, Eduardo Coutinho’s 1984 multi-award-winning landmark 'Man Marked for Death, 20 Years Later. '

 

Mawu Films is extremely proud to release this must-have fully restored film for anyone interested in world cinema or the history of documentary filmmaking.

Man Marked for Death, 20 Years Later is an intensely moving portrait of a family ripped apart by the murder of the Sapé Peasant League leader, João Pedro Teixeira. Structurally daring, this seminal documentary creates a complex, genre-defying mosaic and the film’s triptych design makes for a compelling odyssey through twenty years of Brazilian political upheaval.

Restoration supervised by Eduardo Coutinho
