Film number 3 is coming up as part of our “ThisCulture” film series, we’ve had some great films so far and it’s been amazing to be able to bring them to you on the big screen. Next is “Favela on Blast” on August 18th, it’s an amazing doco and one not to miss, we’ve got El Gato Negro on the decks for the night too so come down early.
“Favela on Blast is the directorial film debut from Grammy-nominated DJ and producer, Diplo, and his partner Leandro HBL. For 20 years, a subculture has emerged under society’s radar. Favela On Blast tells the stories of sex, love, poverty and pride for Rio’s marginalized people. They have their own language, style and heroes. It’s a music that’s… fast, heavy and violent like the city itself. This film is a flash of a few lives of charismatic people that relate to the funk music and a retelling of the subculture itself.”
