About Rio Sonata: Nana Caymmi
Featuring images from concerts that marked the history of Brazilian music and interviews with major personalities, Nana Caymmi, one of the greatest artists of Brazilian popular music, has her story analyzed and revisited. The ex-wife of Gilberto Gil, muse of Milton Nascimento, and daughter of Dorival Caymmi, Nana is considered by many journalists to be "the singer of singers," and the leading names of the era attempt to explain why.
Directed by Georges Gachot, Rio Sonata: Nana Caymmi leans on a strong ensemble — Maria Bethânia, Erasmo Carlos, Dori Caymmi — 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 screen titles of 2011.
