'The Secret Agent' is the latest film by award-winning Brazilian director Kleber Mendonça Filho.
Awarded three major Cannes prizes, this explosive political thriller races through Brazil's 1977 Carnival as a father outruns a regime collapsing into darkness.
The film stars Wagner Moura ('Narcos', 'Civil War'), Udo Kier ('Blood for Dracula'), Maria Fernanda Cândido ('The Traitor'), and Gabriel Leone ('Senna'). With Oscar buzz aplenty, 'The Secret' Agent is Brazil's official submission for Best International Feature.
