The Circle presents an evolution of Capoeira, an Afro-Brazilian martial art disguised within ritual dance. Rooted in the history of slavery, perceived as a tool of gang warfare, and developed within the confines of poverty generations of teachers have worked together to bring the essence of capoeira to light. Capoeira has now expanded into an international phenomenon that inspires and teaches people from all walks of life about overcoming obstacles and accessing freedom.

Fein Productions and Afro Brazil Arts have traveled from New York to Brazil to expand the initial short project. The extended documentary will focus on master insights and how Capoeira’s inherent lessons affect the lives of those who listen. Come explore this mysterious art and see how it can apply to your own life.
