Cangaço Novo (2023), now streaming on Amazon Prime, takes audiences on a captivating exploration of the world of Brazilian cangaço, infusing it with a modern essence that revitalizes the genre.

The series delves deep into themes of loyalty, honor, and the unyielding human spirit in the face of adversity, resulting in an engaging and intellectually enriching viewing experience.

Notably, the show excels in crafting well-rounded characters, fostering a profound connection with each character's motivations and emotions. The dialogues are immersive and enthralling, providing insights into the intricate tapestry of relationships and alliances that define the cangaço way of life.

The exceptional performances by the cast and a dynamic storyline effortlessly seize the viewer's attention from start to finish, making Cangaço Novo a truly compelling and immersive journey.

As a northeastern girl, I'm honored to be represented by this series. The way they studied our culture, our language and how everything was so relatable to my reality got me right in the heart, haha For those who don't get the emotion: 99% of the Brazilian productions talk about the southeast, we were completely forgotten even tho we are the real culture of our country.

The cast is amazing, I can say I'm so angry with the maleiros as I am with Bolsonaro! And believe me, that's a loooot.

The cangaço lived in my family and I can say I feel represented with this masterpiece. I'm truly happy to recommend it.

The cinematography of this show is mind-blowing, for a brazilian show, Prime Video totally got it right. It shows how politics are done far in the smalls cities in Brazil, how they play dirty to accomplish their own goals and make the citizens as their means to get it - and after getting, forgetting them, making the people suffer with poverty, have not water and not a single way to live better cause most of these people are so needy to have something that they are easily bought when the time of elections begin again.

It also brings to the plot the cangaço. There's a known real story lived by Lampeão and Maria Bonita, but the writter and director did such a well done job creating a new story without having to refer to that story. This series deserves a second season - which is already written, but Prime Video has yet to confirm the new season. If they do it, it could easily be one of the best original brazilian shows ever done by Prime. Not even Netflix or Star+ (disney) has a show in this quality. Everything is so well done, there's no plot holes. You can feel the adrenaline while watching. It's not a 10 cause i Want to see the end whe the story is actually over in a new season.

If you are going to watch this series, be prepared to feel a mix of every feeling a human can feel: angry, sadness, joy, anxiety, disgust.

What you will watch is a very stereotypical vision of northeast culture, along with very accurate elements of the day to day life of these fearless, struggling and suffering people. If you can watch this in Portuguese - its original language, you will see how rich, diverse and unique is their vocabulary.

It is incredible to watch the story and growth of Ubaldo, which is the same as a lot of people from Brazil's northeast: they migrate to São Paulo seeking a better life but they struggle there and always end up coming back to their "terrinha".

So interesting to see Ubaldo reganing his own identy, stolen from him when he was just a little boy. Not to mention the strong women on the plot, they own every single scene.

You will get attached to characters with real deep motivations, even though they are cangaceiros, the bad guys.

Stunning production, brilliant performance, and the end leaves mragin to a next season. I did not expect to watch such a well made Brazillian production. Nice one!
