What a movie, what a country!

“Tieta of Agreste” (1998) is a movie that you have to see. The movie is witty, funny and very Brazilian as anything written by Jorge Amado. It is a bit of a immigrant dream of a successful rich woman returning to visit her little village. She left it long ago. She has a secret that I do not want to reveal. Otherwise I will spoil your pleasure. Only in European movies (and in Brazilian ones) we can see how the bad an the good is actually one. The life is not black and white. But this movie is in many colors. There are some moments which Americans would find to be X rated but overall it is PG.
