This week, we discuss two critically acclaimed films from Brazil.

The first is Estômago (2007), a Brazilian–Italian film directed by Marcos Jorge. It tells the story of Raimundo, a humble man who moves to the big city to become a chef. The film won a number of awards in Brazil.

The second is Bacurau (2019), a Weird Western film written and directed by Kleber Mendonça Filho and Juliano Dornelles. The film was selected to compete for the Palme d'Or at the 2019 Cannes Film Festival, and won the Jury Prize.
