The Velaslavasay Panorama and Radio Afrique in collaboration with Mr. Bongo Records (UK) are pleased to host the Los Angeles debut of Tropicália, a documentary film by Marcelo Machado.

Tropicália tells the story of the rich artistic and cultural movement born in the late 1960s in Brazil. From a collective of like-minded souls, ‘tropicália’ used music, poetry, theatre, and avant-garde visual art to confront the political establishment. The film highlights the struggle ‘tropicália’ artists endured to protect their right to freely express revolutionary thought at a time of political turbulence in Brazil.
