Linha De Passe




A grueling insight into a small section of these characters lives. Beautifully shot and eleqently told. This is real life and life is what you make it, and the important thing is that life goes on. The events shown are not overly extreme, instead the film shows the undulating aspects of life, and how a good thing is often tainted with unforseen problems. The inter-connection between the brothers lives is cleverly linked, with the viewer being forced to keep thinking. The cinematography is amazing. The colours contained within the city are breathtaking and the lack of lighting in some shots really adds to the tension. The camera work in scenes with the football and when focusing on close-ups of the characters, fits the mood perfectly.
This is an absolute must see.
