About Como nos Livrar do Saco

Directed by Cesar Ladeira Filho, Como nos Livrar do Saco leans on a strong ensemble — Cláudio Cavalcanti, Sandra Barsotti, Cecil Thiré — 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 1973.
