About Aniceto do Império: Dia de Alforria
Zózimo Bulbul’s film is dedicated to Zumbi dos Palmares and to all Maroons dead and alive. It portrays the life of Aniceto, who was 72 years old at the time: a union leader, a stevedore at the Rio de Janeiro port and founder of Escola de Samba Império Serrano
Directed by Zózimo Bulbul, Aniceto do Império: Dia de Alforria leans on a strong ensemble — Aniceto do Império, Nei Lopes, Wilson Moreira — 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 documentary titles of 1981.
