The Ballroom
Chega de Saudade
2007 · 1h 35m · Drama, Music, Romance · Brazil · Rated 15 (GB)
An evening in an old time dance hall in Sao Paulo introduces us to local characters who reminisce about the past, wonder about the future, have fun, flirt, fight and, of course, dance. Its earthy humour and eternal themes of ageing, loneliness and desire is an antidote to grumpy old men and women everywhere.
