Gabriel O Pensador
“One of the greatest names in Brazilian rap, Gabriel O Pensador, that is, Gabriel the Thinker, has always been different from most of his peers due to being a white, middle-class kid. Since the beginning of his career, Gabriel distinguished himself for the social criticism in his lyrics. Son of journalist Belisa Ribeiro, Gabriel appeared in 1992 with the song “To feliz, matei o presidenteâ€. At that time he was still studying Journalism at the University in Rio de Janeiro.”

Maria’s Place (Bendito O Fruto)
35mm / color / 90 min / 2005 / Romantic Comedy
“An accident involving a flying manhole cover leads to a chance meeting between two childhood friends: a widow and the owner of a beauty parlor. Thus begins an entertaining game of seduction that brings memories and hidden desires to the surface – furtive passions that end up threatening the hairdresser’s de facto marriage.”
