Top 200 Most Anticipated Foreign Films of 2023: #32. Marco Dutra’s Enterre Seus Mortos

Enterre Seus Mortos

We’ve been big fans of the filmmaker since he broke out with Locarno preemed Hard Labor (2011) and Un Certain Regard selected Good Manners (2017) – both co-directed with Juliana Rojas. He hit Berlinale with 2020’s All the Dead Ones (read review) and could return to the Golden Bear comp with his latest work – the book to film adaptation of Ana Paula Maia’s Enterre Seus Mortos. Marco Dutra moved into production back in February of last year in Rio de Janerio with players Selton Mello, Marjorie Estiano and Betty Faria grabbing top billing. Dutra reteamed with his Good Manners cinematographer Rui Poças. Lourenço Sant’Anna, Rodrigo Teixeira and Alan Terpins produced the project.
