Finding your next obsession

In 1982, the Arpoador Beach, in Rio de Janeiro, received the first "incarnation" of Circo Voador, a venue for artists of diverse aspects showing their art to the public. Months later, Circo landed at Lapa, the city's most bohemian neighborhood. Today, more than three decades later, the venue has become a cultural reference in the country. This documentary is directed by Tainá Menezes and has testimonials from artists such as Gilberto Gil, Lobão, Evandro Mesquita and more than 50 personalities that were part of the history of Circo Voador.
