World Cinema: The Guns

on BBC Two England

(Os Fuzis)
The fourth in a season of films featuring the new cinema of Latin America starring
Atila Iorio
Nelson Xavier Maria Gladys
An ex-soldier, appalled by the apathy of starving villagers in the face of persecution and the loss of their only food reserves, tries to incite them into action.
This early example of ' cinema novo' powerfully conveys the message that the people can do nothing against political oppression and military force.
Written and directed by RUY GUERRA Producer JARBAS BARBOSA
