The Prophet of Hunger

The Prophet of Hunger 1970 Directed by Maurice Capovila O Profeta da Fome

Hunger is a plague and he is the host.

The story of a fakir who works in a decadent circus. He and his colleagues do weirder numbers each day to attract audience, and warrant their survival. The numbers resemble a horror-show and they get marginalized. Through fable and allegory, reality turns stronger and stronger, and more absurd.
