In 1962, in the Rio de Janeiro press, euphoria took over film criticism. In view of the new national films in production, which was focused on social themes, it was believed that overcoming a precariousness existing in Brazilian cinema. Enthusiastic about the process of cultural renewal, film critics started calling it Cinema Novo, suggesting that such a concept encompassed the most varied films as opposed to the chanchada’s gender. From a generalist perspective, they would spread an elastic notion of Cinema Novo to include a wide range of aesthetic experiences. However, for a young generation of politically engaged filmmakers, looking for an independent and authorial creative project, the generic notion of renewal meant a loss of substance. In their conception, antagonistic to the position that was growing in the press, Cinema Novo meant exclusively a formal and political revolutionary movement. Also acting in the journalistic criticism, they would install a fierce dispute against common sense. At the epicenter of the conflict, which had Glauber Rocha as one of its protagonists, were the initial definitions of a concept that would become central to Brazilian cultural history
