Synopsis

While the world was boiling in the tremors of Easy Rider motorcycles, in the frenetic rhythm of Elvis Presley, in the Beatnik poets, in the explosion of counterculture, a boy from Bahia gave birth to Rock in Brazil.

A runaway flying saucer that abducted the hearts and minds of thousands of fans, Raul Seixas, a man who became a myth.

The film unveils through rare archive images, meetings with family members, conversations with artists, producers, and friends, the trajectory of the Brazilian Rock legend.

Raul Seixas died young because he lived intensely. Rock n' Roll, free love, Alternative Society, drugs, black magic, military dictatorship, women and daughters. A man who wanted to live off his work and died for it.

The beginning, the end, and the middle blend together, because the story is not over.

3/10

The songs in the film lacked depth and emotion, failing to convey the intensity and passion with which Raul Seixas lived his life and created his music. The soundtrack seemed more like a superficial background noise rather than a meaningful complement to the story being told.
