    The main focus in the movie is on people. It has an unassuming frank camera on people, their saudade for their roots, music, passions, dance, work, sweat, joy and daily life. After watching this movie it is almost impossible not to love/admire the nordestionos in SP with their 100% humane existence. Film makes good use of silence as well as the music; all frames are full of real people shot almost by two eyes without intimidating people rather than with a camera and a crew. The selection of songs are excellent, it is the best thing to feel between these people in a forro dancing bar without actually being there.… Expand

    The film doesn't provide any narration or go out of its way to identify the participants, so it's left to the viewer to make connections and draw their own conclusions.

    A summer delight that also provides a quick cultural education.

    Despite its sociological tidbits and flashes of musical vitality, Saudade do Futuro never goes anywhere.
