Unidos da Tijuca - theme for 2011

"This night will lift your soul"

Carnavaleso Paulo Barros of the Rio samba school Unidos da Tijuca  always comes up with obscure enredo titles, but there is some explanation. The theme will look at the fear caused by horror, pense and detective films. It will feature some of the biggest names in Brazilian film production. Tijuca is planning to show the spirit with which Brazilians overcome their fears. They will construct a film in the avenida, and will invite the onlookers to watch it.  "we will show the strength of a people which ..... isn't firghtened to be happy" says Paulo Barros.
