Cinema Of Brazil: Music And Rhythm; Sound In Cinema – Music In Film: UK Portuguese Film Festival, London
One of the themes of this year's City Of London festival is the music of the Portuguese-speaking world, which is good news for cinemagoers, as these parallel festivals deliver more genres than you can shake a hip at.
