Beast Race

Premieres on Aug 7

In a dystopian future, Rio de Janeiro lies in ruins and has become the setting for a deadly race. What was once the "jogo do bicho" (animal game) has now turned into a violent competition among runners, each representing an animal, risking their lives to compete for a cash prize that can change their lives. However, to compete, each runner must offer another person as collateral. Only the winners recover their loved ones. The game has become a symbol of oppression for many and entertainment for the majority, who bet on their favourite runners, further widening the gap between the rich and the poor. Mano, an idealistic young man who has always fought against the race and everything it represents, sees his world collapse when his only sister becomes the collateral offered by one of the participants. Determined to save her, Mano confronts his own principles and dives into the depths of the game, forming unlikely alliances to increase his chances of winning and, perhaps, ending the game once and for all. His personal journey transforms into a crusade that could change his destiny and that of all the inhabitants of Rio de Janeiro.
