Pedro, Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea

The story of Brazil’s first emperor, returning to Europe on board the English ship Warspite. The trip makes Pedro conquer his fears and face his life from a personal point of view. He goes back in time and relives outstanding moments of his earlier life – since his childhood, when in 1808 he arrived coming from Portugal with his family, until he left in the dead of the night, in 1831, running away from Brazil.

Directed by Laís Bodanzky, Pedro, Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea leans on a strong ensemble — Cauã Reymond, Victoria Guerra, Rita Wainer — 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 history titles of 2022.
