Wiki.
Limite (Brazilian Portuguese: [lĩˈmitʃi], Portuguese for "limit", "border" or "edge") is a 1931 Brazilian silent experimental psychological drama film directed, written, and produced by Mário Peixoto. The film was inspired by a photograph by André Kertész and was shot in 1930, with its first screening taking place in 1931. It is often considered one of the earliest experimental feature films.
The film tells the story of two unnamed women and an unnamed man drifting in a small boat. As they float aimlessly, they reflect on their pasts through flashbacks. One woman escaped from prison but is still being pursued, the other left an unhappy marriage, and the man is grieving the loss of a lover. Tired and without hope, they stop rowing and let the boat drift.
Limite was restored between 1966 and 1978 from a single damaged nitrate print, though one scene remains missing. Despite its limited release and the fact that Peixoto never made another film, Limite received praise from critics and filmmakers, including Georges Sadoul and Walter Salles. It has since gained a cult following and is frequently mentioned as one of the best Brazilian films.
