This is a must-watch, if I've ever seen one! Following in the footsteps of Rogério Sganzerla and Júlio Bressane, Amor Sociedade Anônima is an excellent illustration of Cinema Marginal/experimental film. The mosaic of various instances portrayed and the use of different artistic techniques place the viewer in an active and thought-provoking rapport with the film.
From the first second, the viewer is introduced to a world full of emotions, one in which love, with its many faces, its highs and lows, supremely reigns. The selflessness inherent to love is beautifully captured, giving hope to those in need and emphasizing that, among others, through compassion love makes the world go round. The viewer is shown that despite whatever life may throw at you, through love there's always at least one way ahead.
However, Amor Sociedade Anônima is much more than just a love film. It also includes smartly layered social and political criticism, providing the viewer with a unique insight into everyday life in São Paulo. Great samba masters, such as Germano Mathias, contribute to an exquisite, one-of-a-kind journey, which viewers are bound not to forget anytime soon.
All in all, viewers will leave the room with a smile on their faces and seeds of compassion, hope, and love in their hearts.
