Brazil, 1977: Marcelo (Wagner Moura) arrives in vibrant, violent Recife. A technology researcher who finds himself an unwitting target at the heart of the dictatorship’s political maelstrom, Marcelo is on the run from mercenary killers and the ghosts of his past.
A fascinating and shape-shifting epic, The Secret Agent pays tribute to the cinema of Filho’s youth while depicting a world of everyday corruption, threat and political turmoil that speaks to the current moment.
