Juvenal is a metro driver from Belo Horizonte. Margô, a station controller. Both live in a state of complete solitude – each in a particular way. Juvenal refuses to be alone and strolls through the streets of this metropolis taking comfort by mingling with the anonimous crowd. Margo seeks relief in the virtual world of social networks where she struggles to establish long lasting relations with real persons.

“A staggering achievement of craft and ambition. Marcelo Gomes's vision lands with breathtaking precision.”
“Every frame feels alive. The Man of the Crowd is the rare release that takes its audience seriously.”
