Full Plot Details

Diamantina Mountains, Brazil, 1821. A slave trader, ANTONIO, returns to the decadent, but imposing farmhouse he inherited to discover his wife has died in child birth. Confined to this desolate property in the company of his demented mother-in-law and numerous slaves, he marries his dead wife's niece, BEATRIZ, a child of 12. A restless soul, he returns to his trading expeditions, and leaves his child wife behind. The loneliness of the big house in the rugged landscape mirrors that of its inhabitants. Each one has been displaced from his original home and forced into co-existence. The undercurrents of violence and prejudice, which still plague the Brazil of today, accelerate the inevitable tragedy which, in turn, heralds the tides of change.

Movie Reviews

Washington City Paper - 9/10 by Alan ZilbermanSome scenes are languid, while others are seemingly pointless, yet they culminate toward a final shot as striking and powerful as anything in the usual crop of Oscar bait.
Culture Trip - 9/10 by Graham FullerIt has the aura of a foundation myth-at times beautiful, at time squalid.
RogerEbert.com - 8/10 by Glenn KennyThe languidly-paced picture has a staggering array of beautiful images and vistas.
Washington Post - 8/10 by Michael O'SullivanEvery frame of Inti Briones's starkly gorgeous black-and-white cinematography ... hints at an inherent contradiction, either visually, in the narrative or in its larger themes.
SF Weekly - 8/10 by Sherilyn ConnellyAt two hours, Vazante has an unfortunate tendency to drag.
Chicago Tribune - 8/10 by Michael PhillipsAny director this far along in developing an assured visual style truly is a director to watch.
Mark Reviews Movies - 8/10 by Mark DujsikThere is no way that the story of Vazante ... could end well. The genuine shock is how badly and horrifically it does end for all of these characters.
Capital Times (Madison, WI) - 8/10 by Rob ThomasIt can test the patience of a viewer. But the beauty of the images and the underlying power of the story, especially when Beatriz begins to emerge as the focus of the film, make Vazante an immersive watch.
Big Apple Reviews - 7/10 by Harvey S. KartenSlavery corrupts owners as well as their enslaved as this starkly beautiful, dreamlike fable assures us.
Film Journal International - 7/10 by André HerefordVazante pokes and probes at colonial culture and comes up with very little.
