Set against the backdrop of Brazil’s 1977 military dictatorship, The Secret Agent follows Armando (Wagner Moura), a former teacher hiding in Recife during carnival. He becomes entangled in a web of corruption, resistance, and violence. As hitmen close in, Armando seeks traces of his late mother while navigating betrayal, political vendettas, and a society unraveling under authoritarian rule. A compelling, multilayered political thriller masterfully directed by one of Brazil's most acclaimed filmmakers, Kleber Mendonça Filho (Bacurau, Aquarius). Winner of Best Director and Best Actor at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival.
