Logline
In a rural Brazilian community covered with pesticide-sprayed chayote vineyards, the suicide of his friend Vaguinho leads Rodolpho, a writer born there, to retell his friend’s life and death, from farmer to punk rock icon of their youth. Morro Grande traces forms of resistance within an idyllic landscape that hides an alarming vision of the future.
