Sonhos Tropicais is an intriguing blend of drama and history, set against the backdrop of early 20th century Brazil. The film's pacing feels deliberate, almost languid, allowing the weight of the protagonist's struggles to settle in. The narrative dives deep into the life of a Polish Jew navigating despair and desperation, transitioning into prostitution, a choice laden with complexity. Meanwhile, the historical thread of Oswaldo Cruz and the Vaccine Revolt adds a layer of social commentary that's quite fascinating. The performances have a rawness to them, conveying both vulnerability and resilience. There's a certain atmospheric quality, rooted in the historical context, which feels both gritty and poignant. It’s definitely distinct in its approach to intertwining personal and collective narratives.
