High-Rise (2009)

  • Mascaro, Gabriel
  • 2009, Brazil, Documentary, Gabriel Mascaro
  • Leave a comment

An eye-opening documentary with an interesting use of sound, about morbidly rich penthouse-residing Brazilians and why they choose to literally live the high life.

  • Leave a comment

A great and promising film when it is in Portuguese, but suffers several tonal missteps when English takes over in this strange work about politics, class and violence.

Divine Love (2019)

  • Mascaro, Gabriel
  • 2019, Brazil, Gabriel Mascaro
  • 5 Comments

Gabriel Mascaro continues his rise as one of Brazilโ€™s most audacious filmmakers with this provocative and confident take on religion, sex and bureaucracy, set in the not-so-distant future.
