Conceived in close collaboration with Pulinho da Viola, Partido Alto is a historical document and a sincere homage to the "most authentic expression of samba," as Candeia defines this musical genre, marked by improvisation. This precious 1976 film, in addition to capturing the manifestation of a certain musical purity, the simplicity and communion of the samba people with remarkable testimonies from the old guard, takes a stand against the increasing standardization of samba, imposed by the market.
