Whirlpool

Directed by José Luiz Villamarim

With Irandhir Santos, Júlio Andrade, Dira Paes, Cássia Kis and Démick Lopes

Luzimar cycles each day to and from work at the local cotton mill in his hometown of Cataguases, Minas Gerais, Brazil. He is a hard-working man, trying to make the most of what he has. One day, his childhood friend Gildo reappears, driving a fancy car and boasting of his successful life in São Bernardo do Campo, São Paulo. As the two sit down for a beer, memories, regrets and old resentments slowly resurface.
