Among the films made in opposition to Brazil’s dictatorship (1964-85), Imagens, though silent, screams loudest. Through a series of abstract gestures and acts of violence against the body, punctuated by experimental Eisensteinian montage, it confronts the regime’s brutality and the silence imposed on anyone who spoke out against it.
