O Caminho das Nuvens

The movie is slow, but the family goes through a lot of unbelievable conflicts and hardships. You would think that the ending would be spectacular after all is said and done, but its one of those that leaves your imagination to do the rest..... Watch if you like this director's stuff

No Carnaval, No Beaches, No Glamour of Rio de Janeiro...
Added 5/22/2009
Bus, car, train, plane is normal in traveling long distances, but imagine a entire family riding bicycles from Northeast of Brazil to get to Rio de Janeiro city(Southeast), it's about 3.500km!!!The only reason for this crazy and unique experience is the hope of finding a job of 1.000,00 reais (equivalente to $500 dollars). They'll face hunger,violence and scorching days...Thrilling and valuable movie...

I felt what it means when some one has absolutely nothing!!!
By the way I wanted to punch the lazy husband! What kind of man walks around ordering others what to do and not to do and see his children suffer and see all kinds of jobs beyond his EGO!

Very thoughtful and professionally made movie
Added 4/21/2008
From the very first minutes of this movie you clearly understand how professionally it was made. Perfect photography and director's work! I tend to think that this is due to the producer Bruno Barreto.
There's a simple story with a few turns. You'll find a lot of Brazilian country landscapes here and meet local culture.
After viewing this film I felt a little sad because such a large and beautiful country with such good people and rich culture is so poor. This movie won't thrill you, but it will make you think and feel instead.

Disapointed
Added 4/10/2008
I am from the Northeast of Brazil and I expected a better movie. The accent of the actor sounded fake. The are from the southeast of Brazil and did not work well on the accent. The movie as a caricatura.
Next time I will stick with "Auto da Compadecida". Much better.
