A film that depicts the everyday life and the beauty of Portela’s Old Folk – a group of veteran samba musicians who belong to one of Rio’s most revered samba schools, the one with the most first places and accolades in Rio’s Carnaval pageant. These old gentelmen’s and ladies’ musicality and poetry are unveiled through their simple, but rich and meaningful, every day life in Oswaldo Cruz, a quaint neighborhood in Rio’s North Zone, that serves both as set and as a main character in this story.

A8 poster
FILM

Whether in the midfield, or in any other medium, consciousness is the method. This is demonstrated by A8, an audiovisual monologue in short film with Afonsinho, who knows how to see more than his teammates on the field: – “In order to have a game you need your opponent too”. The heir of Zizinho and Didi’s jersey number values individual talent, but doesn’t ignore that, without the guy who does the heavy work, there is no solo performance. There is no owner of the ball in A8.

The documentary was directed by his daughter Camila Pitanga, one of widely recognised faces in Brazilian television and cinema right now. The film is also a poem, and a tender ode to fatherhood.
