Brazil (Digital Restoration)

Terry Gilliam’s BRAZIL feels like a bureaucratic fever dream, a surreal, blackly comic vision of a world strangled by paperwork, state paranoia, and ducts.

In this retro-futurist nightmare, one man’s attempt to dream, to love, and to live freely becomes an act of cosmic rebellion. Combining Orwellian despair with Monty Python absurdity, BRAZIL remains one of the most visually inventive and disturbingly funny portraits of modern authoritarianism ever made.
