So, 'What Is It Worth?' is a film that plays out like a reflective piece on time and societal structures, rooted deeply in Machado de Assis's short story. The pacing is deliberate, allowing you to soak in the atmosphere of both the slavery era and contemporary Brazil. It's not flashy, more about the subtle performances that convey this heavy narrative. You can feel the weight of history and the struggles of identity and morality throughout. The practical effects are minimal but impactful, enhancing the rawness of the themes. It’s interesting how it weaves historical parallels with modern issues, making you think about how far we’ve come—or haven’t. Quite a thought-provoking watch, really.
