Product Description Andre, a teenager, lives in an industrial town in Brazil near an old aluminum factory. One day, a factory worker, Cristiano, suffers an accident. Asked to go to Cristiano s house to pick up clothes and documents, Andre stumbles on a notebook, and it s here that Araby begins or, rather, transforms. As Andre reads from the journal entries, we are plunged into Cristiano s life, into stories of his wanderings, adventures, and loves. Beautifully written and filmed, Araby is a fable-like road movie about a young man who sets off on a ten-year journey in search of a better life. Review "An instant classic. Has the truly rare capacity to inspire and energize with the optimistic sense that nothing is impossible." --Neil Young, Hollywood Reporter "Critic's Pick! [A] Superb performance... beautifully incarnated by Aristides de Sousa." --Glenn Kenny, The New York Times "A beautifully wrought Brazilian movie... Directed with unforced simplicity and heart... feels part of a through line from Italian neorealism to the issue-driven storytellers Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne." --Robert Abele, LA Times
