Synopsis: Highly stylized and striking docu “Cattle Callers” explores the world of aboio, a musical singing style invented by Brazilian cowboys that sounds like a cross between the calls of Islamic muezzins and a sort of mournful yodeling. Promising first feature by young Brazilian helmer Marilia Rocha offers more than mere anthropological and musicological interest.
