• Plot: Golden Globe Award Nominee for Best Foreign Language Film, Behind The Sun is a critically acclaimed story about love, loyalty and the choice a son must make between honoring his family and following his heart. In the Brazilian badlands of 1910, two families are locked in a bloody, generations-old feud. In one family, the oldest remaining son – distressed by the prospect of death and encouraged by his younger brother – begins to question the cycle of violence. Then, a beautiful woman crosses his path and opens his eyes to life outside his culture's rigid code of honor. Stunningly photographed and exquisitely told, this outstanding motion picture masterpiece will transport you to a vastly different place and time...a place somewhere behind the sun!
