Interwoven with the spectacle of the Rio de Janeiro carnival, comes the retelling of the legend of Orpheus (Breno Mello) and Eurydice (Marpessa Dawn). French auteur Marcel Camus unfolds the melancholy tale of love and tragedy which won the 1959 Palme d'Or and went on to win an Oscar and Golden Globe.
