Mutantes S.21 – 25 Years Later

Twenty-five years after the edition of “Mutantes S.21”, Mão Morta returned to Theatro Circo for a celebration of their iconic album which remains an important milestone in Portuguese music. The album's nine tracks, recorded and filmed live throughout the concert, are interspersed with some of the album and Mão Morta’s stories told by members and former member of the group; and with documents from that time, including footage of the concert twenty-five years earlier.

Directed by João de Sá, Mutantes S.21 – 25 Years Later leans on a strong ensemble — Adolfo Luxúria Canibal, Miguel Pedro, António Rafael — 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 2019.
