From acclaimed director Kleber Mendonça Filho, The Secret Agent is a gripping, mischievous political thriller that entertains as much as it provokes.Set amid the vibrant cultural landscape of 1970s Brazil, the film immerses audiences in the nation’s charged atmosphere, capturing the grandeur of the period’s golden-age cinema through sumptuous cinematography and a bold, era-defining soundtrack.
Wagner Moura stars as Marcelo (in a performance which won him the Best Actor award at Cannes Film Festival and garnered an Oscar® nomination) a father on the run from a mysterious past. Arriving in Recife during Carnival, Marcelo is swept into a dizzying world of colour, noise, and unforgettable characters. As the city’s sights and sounds intensify, Marcelo’s true place within Recife’s intricate web of secrets begins to emerge.
