Viramundo Competition: Win Film Rental And Sountrack

To mark the release of Gilberto Gil documentary portrait Viramundo, we give away digital rental copies of the film and a soundtrack CD in a special competition.

Viramundo sees world music superstar Gilberto Gil, after decades of sold out shows and international recognition, embarking on a new kind of world tour through the southern hemisphere. From Brazil to Australia and South Africa, Gil continues the work he began as Brazil’s first black Minister of Culture - promoting the power of cultural diversity in a globalized world and sharing his vision for our future: a diverse, interconnected planet filled with hope, exchange... and of course music!
