BABY

At 18 years old, Wellington has been released from a juvenile detention center in São Paulo. With no family, friends or resources to survive on his own, he turns to Ronaldo, a beguiling and experienced older man who introduces him to new and exciting ways to survive in the underbelly of the city. The fun doesn’t last, however, as the passion in their relationship inevitably turns tumultuous. The bustling streets of Brazil come to life with dizzying vibrancy, allure and danger in this sublime feature from this year’s Cannes Film Festival. BABY presents the city as a journey of self-discovery, with desire, emotion and pain hiding in every corner.
