“A stunning example of ingenuity and art.”
—The Philadelphia Inquirer
“An intoxicating experience.”
—The London Evening Standard
BLACK ORPHEUS is an immersive wonder in every respect, a bold and colorful adaptation of the ancient Greek story of Orpheus and Eurydice set in Brazil at Carnival time. This is the film that introduced the world to the bossa-nova and samba beats of the Afro-Brazilian music scene, and the pulse of the music drives the story throughout.
