Jason Kohn
Manda Bala (Send a Bullet) [videorecording]= Jason Kohn - Brazil United States Kilo Films Whitest Pouring Films 2007 - 1 videodisc (ca. 85 min.) sound, color. 4 3/4 in. - David W. Foster Collection .
From case cover:
Brazil is known for its beautiful beaches, lush rain forests, and vibrant culture. However, in recent years, the country has developed more of a reputation for corrupt politicians, kidnapping, and plastic surgery. Manda Bala (Send a Bullet) artfully connects these seemingly disparate elements and conducts a dazzling, yet harrowing, examination of the tragic domino effect that has reshaped the face of the country and created an entire industry built on corruption. Featuring a stylish score and articulate interviews with kidnappers, kidnap victims, and the people who profit off them, Jason Kohn's award-winning documentary illustrates how corruption and kidnapping represent two sides of the same violent crime: the rich steal from the poor while the poor steal the rich.
DVD video; Dolby Digital 5.1; surround; NTSC; Region 1; 16:9 widescreen.
English audio. Optional Spanish subtitles.
