About The Crime of Aldeia Velha
Joana lives in a small and remote village where people are very primitive and religious. When accidents start happening that involves her, people slowly start believing that she is possessed by the devil.
Directed by Manuel Guimarães, The Crime of Aldeia Velha leans on a strong ensemble — Barbara Laage, Mário Pereira, Maria Olguim — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about crime titles of 1964.
