A report about the so-called "Marimbás", who aren't exactly fishermen, even though they live of the sea, have their boats and do their fishing on the beaches of Rio de Janeiro.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Marimbás is an exceptional film rated 10.0/10. It ranks among the finest in its genre and is an absolute must-watch for any film lover.

A high rating speaks for itself — this film found its audience and didn't let them down. Trust the collective taste.

A classic from 1963. 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.
