The following contains spoilers for today’s Flickle.
Portuguese language. People are talking, one urgently as if trying to convince the other, as one climbs out of a tree. Someone points a gun at a door as a group enters, quickly lowering it with relief upon seeing who is entering. A disorienting split-screen of a party from two perspectives – one side of the screen has someone walking through a dimly lit crowd, the other someone energetically dancing in front of others. A shaky and disoriented shot with quick views of panicked faces followed by an overhead shot of two gunmen in a building making a quick exit as people lay on the floor. One young man (Phellipe Haagensen) is talking to another (facing away). Finally, a young man (Leandro Firmino) is greeting a group of youths.
