Captains of the Sands

Jorge Amado

A group of orphans and runaways call themselves the "Captains of the Sands" and live by their wits in the slums of Bahia, Brazil. Led by 15-year-old "Bullet," they pull off heists against the wealthy until a public outcry demands their capture. This poignant drama captures the vivid emotions, culture, and landscape of Bahia with brilliant authenticity.
