Full Plot Details

Iremar works at the "Vaquejadas", a rodeo in the North East of Brazil where two men on horseback try bring down a bull by grabbing its tail. It's dusty and back-breaking work, but Iremar is a natural vaqueiro feeding, prepping and taking care of the bulls. Home is the truck used to transport the animals from show to show which he shares with his coworkers; Galega, an exotic dancer, truck driver and mother to her spirited and cheeky daughter Cacá, and Zé, his rotund compadre in the bull pen. Together they form a makeshift but close-knit family. But Brazil and the Northeast are changing and the region's booming clothing industry has stirred new ambitions in Iremar. Swinging in his hammock in the back of the truck, his head is filled with dreams of pattern cutting, sequins and exquisite fabrics as he mentally assembles his latest sexy fashion designs.

Movie Reviews

Cinema em Cena - 10/10 by Pablo VillaçaNão é filme de trama, mas de observação.
Indiewire - 10/10 by Eric KohnLyrically involving and deeply sensual, Neon Bull showcases a full-bodied artist in command of his form.
The New York Times - 10/10 by Stephen HoldenNeon Bull is a profound reflection on the intersection of the human and bestial.
Village Voice - 10/10 by Alan ScherstuhlNo matter how rigorously worked out each shot and its action might be, Neon Bull always honors the chaotic looseness of everyday living — the way that, unlike in the movies, few of the moments we inhabit seem to be about just one thing.
The Globe and Mail (Toronto) - 9/10 by Barry HertzThe film is filthy with nuanced moments of fierce, sweaty intimacy, all shot with a precise eye for detail. At the very least, it will make you rethink your next rodeo.
Slant Magazine - 9/10 by Chuck BowenEverything in the film is understood to be a subsumed sex act, with actual sex serving as a contextualizing catharsis.
Cinemanía (Spain) - 9/10 by Paula Arantzazu RuizPoverty and tradition are combined in a elusive story about rodeo life in northeastern Brazil. [Full review in Spanish]
Eye for Film - 9/10 by Amber WilkinsonRelationships and what could be seen as traditional gender roles ripple as fluidly as the muscles on a bull's back, as Mascaro immerses us in Iremar's world.
Chicago Reader - 9/10 by Leah PickettThe cowboy character would have benefited from a stronger story arc, but Cazarré is quietly charismatic in the role, a Brando-esque figure searching for meaning beyond maschismo.
Movie Mezzanine - 9/10 by Mallory AndrewsThe minutiae of rodeo life depicted in Neon Bull have the quality of a fly-on-the-wall documentary...
