                                 A place I´d like to visit I have always dreamed of going to Brazil, since I was little. I was very impressed by the joy of its people, as well as the beautiful landscapes I saw on television. What most struck me were the carnival seasons, which take place in Rio de Janeiro, which is celebrated forty days before Palm Sunday.  The colorful costumes of the dancers dancing to the rhythm of the samba, the amount of people celebrating, the allegorical cars and the happiness of the people who live there, make you an invitation to enjoy that experience.

The film takes place in the Neo-Tokyo in 2019 (this year: O), which is built on the ruins of ancient Tokyo that was destroyed in the third world war.

At the same time, in the streets of Neo -Tokyo Kaneda, the leader of a biker gang fights with his best friend Tetsuo. But Tetsuo suffers a strange accident and enters the military installations. Inside the facilities, scientists discover that he has "absolute energy" due to the accident he suffered. I really like this movie because the plot ...
