Os Doces Bárbaros
The film records the commemorative tour of the ten years of the career of the Bahia singers Caetano Veloso, Gilberto Gil, Maria Bethânia and Gal Costa, who formed the group with the name of Doces Bárbaros (Sweet Barbarians), at the suggestion of Bethânia. Conceived to present the shows of the live album that would be released (Doces Bárbaros - Live), the documentary changed of tone when registering the arrest and judgment of Gilberto Gil and of a companion by possession of drugs. Gil was forced to go to a detox clinic, and only went out to participate in the programmed shows.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
Os Doces Bárbaros is a very strong film rated 7.7/10. Great direction and performances make this one well worth adding to your watchlist.
A high rating speaks for itself — this film found its audience and didn't let them down. Trust the collective taste.
A classic from 1977. They don't make them like this anymore — which is exactly why you should watch it. Best for: any evening when you want quality cinema with no compromises.
