After decades of sold out shows and international recognition, Brazilian musician Gilberto Gil embarks on a new kind of world tour through the southern hemisphere
From Bahia, Gil travels to the land of the Aborigines of Australia and the townships of South Africa, ending in the Brazilian Amazon region. With the same passion, Gil continues the work he began as Brazil’s first black minister of culture – promoting the power of cultural diversity in a globalised world and sharing his vision for our future: a diverse, interconnected planet filled with hope, exchange, and of course – music!
World premiere
Viramundo debuted at the Visions du Réel Film Festival, Nyon, Switzerland, on 20 April 2013.
