Ritos

About This Movie

Ritos brings a raw, intimate lens to the vibrant chaos of the World Cup through the eyes of Rio's youth. It contrasts two distinct groups: the traditional fans at Alzirão and the more politically charged Frente Nacional dos Torcedores. The film flows with a rhythmic energy, capturing the pulse of the city, the excitement, and the underlying tensions that come with such a massive event. You get a sense of community, camaraderie, and the diverse expressions of support, but also the discontent simmering beneath. The practical effects of real-life footage blend seamlessly with personal stories, creating a layered narrative that's both celebratory and reflective. It’s all about the atmosphere – you feel like you’re right there, navigating the streets and feeling the excitement.
