Evocation of the paths taken by Glauber Rocha in Monte Santo and Cocorobó, Serra de Canudos, Bahia, when he was filming 'Deus e o Diabo na Terra do Sol'.

Netflix’s Shadow and Bone has a complicated relationship with race. It has a diverse cast, but not without its problems. Based on Leigh Bardugo’s two book series, the show features characters from the Shadow and Bone trilogy, which is very straight and white, and the Six of Crows duology, which is much more diverse.

Shadow and Bone seems to play a bit of a push and pull game when it comes to portraying diversity onscreen.
Swapped combines comedy, adventure and emotional growth while delivering one of the biggest plot twists in animation history.
