Palmares is a 17th-century quilombo, a settlement of escaped slaves in northeast Brazil. In 1650, plantation slaves revolt and head for the mountains where they find others led by the aged seer, Acotirene. She anoints one who becomes Ganga Zumba, a legendary king. For years, his warriors hold off Portuguese raiders; then he agrees to leave the mountains in exchange for reservation land and peace. It's a mistake. Zumbi, a warrior whose mother was killed by Portuguese and who spent 15 years with the Whites, stays in the mountains to lead Palmares. In 1694, the Portuguese import a ruthless captain from São Paulo to lead an assault on the free Blacks. Can Zumbi keep Palmares free?

| Classic Film and TelevisionMichael E. GrostFascinating, upbeat look at nation formed by escaped slaves has rich atmosphere and brilliant color. |
| User ReviewKhari TA true story about a settlement of escaped slaves in northeast Brazil who fought against the Portuguese captors for decades. They jumped from the highest cliffs of the mountains rather than be reenslaved. |
| User ReviewOsei David ABlackfolx workin' it out, by any means necessary |
| User ReviewDave SCinema of resistance. Great film made from the point of view of the exploited. Fascinating alternative history and great looking. Made with passion and conviction |
| User ReviewBruno LGood Movie be sure and read Ebert's review. Very interesting to see the point of view of the free slaves in Brazil in 1600 and 1700 fighting for their continued freedom. I would have like the movie more if they had not interspersed the film with modern Brazilian popular music. It just did not fit in. I enjoyed the story characters and costumers were fantastic. The Dancing singing and staging of the dancing in the Brazilian town was incredible. the story/plot seemed a little over romanticized toward the side of the oppressed.( I guess for the Capoeira crowd in Brazil) Highly Recommended.!! A very unusual and interesting historical drama set in the north east of brazil. Pernambucu. four stars |
| User ReviewPrivate UA definite for those in the Pan-Africa field... |
| User ReviewKristal GPretty accessible for a foreign film; definite recommend for anyone interested in Brazil. |
