About this title

Synopsis

Rosa, a small-town Brazilian teacher, begins to lead a life of danger when she stands up to a vicious politician and also harbors her cousin, who is hiding from the Rio underworld

Synopsis

A moral thriller of the first order, THE RACKET is set in the darkly shadowed Latin American landscape of modern-day Brazil, a vast country on the brink of anarchic lawlessness on every level and bankruptcy both material and spiritual. Against a background of urban decay and the rape of nature, social disintegration and private despair, two people find themselves at dangerous odds with the savagery around them.
