March 29, 2012 Film Screening "Fly Away Beetle"

"Fly Away Beetle" Film Screening



Three world renowned masters tell of the blood and treachery of Capoeira in its early days after slavery. A young man gets off the ghetto streets of Salvador, Brazil, and redeems his life by teaching Capoeira to other troubled youth. In their stories, the surprising history and essential truth of Capoeira as a modern self-defense art form is revealed.
