The video doesn’t just star members of the band, they landed actress Bianca Comparato to immerse herself in the creepy world created for this video.
Comparato is best known as a star of the Brazilian dystopian thriller series 3. The video was directed by Manuel Nogueira and was inspired by the horror films of Dario Argento and other masters of terror.
On the band for whom he made the video, Nogueira said, “Ladytron brings up that feeling of traveling back to the past. A foggy past between small nightclubs, concerts, and the grainy reverberation of our memories.

When Netflix’s first Brazilian original series “3%” premiered in November 2016, it was an unexpected and quite pleasant discovery, combining narrative tropes familiar to fans of series like “The Hunger Games” with a fresh take on the post-apocalyptic genre.
Depicting a future society where the difference between the haves and have-nots is taken to the extreme, the focus of the first season was on Michele (Bianca Comparato) and the other 20-year-olds of the Inland slums competing in the Process — a competition to select the most promising members of society to move to the Offshore, which is a comparative paradise welcome only to the top 3 percent.
The Process proved to be brutal to the point of deadly, and much of what made Season 1 so addictive was how it structured the action around the Process, letting the competition power things forward even as characters sought to undermine it. One might have expected Season...

Sometimes, when Netflix releases a “date announcement,” it’s little more than a text on a screen. And sometimes, it’s a proper teaser that gives us a true taste of what’s in store for the upcoming season.
The latter is the case when it comes to the below teaser for “3%” Season 2, which we now know will premiere on April 27. What we don’t know is what comes next for Michele (Bianca Camparato) and the others, as the world of the gritty sci-fi drama looks like it’s about to get a whole lot bigger, even as the danger grows.
“3%,” the first original Netflix series from Brazil, was an unexpected pleasure when it premiered in November 2016. In classic dystopian fashion, the show, set in the not-too-distant future, depicted a world where 97 percent of the population lives in squalor, while a select few are able to move to the paradise known as the Offshore…...

Have you finished watching “3%,” Netflix’s first original series from Brazil and one of the more intriguing dystopian thrillers we’ve seen in a while? Then keep reading. Our initial review of “3%” was deliberately kept spoiler-free, but people are discovering “3%” every day, and some of the biggest ideas presented by the series are worth discussing a bit more in depth… especially that final episode. Boy, did it make an impact.
Spoiler-Free Review: Season 1 of Brazil’s ‘Hunger Games’ Finds Its Own Voice
[Editor’s note: spoilers for “3%,” through the finale, below.]
The first season, created by Pedro Aguilera and directed by Cesar Charlone, tracks a group of 20-year-olds who are attempting to complete a brutal selection ritual that will elevate them from the slums of a ruined world to the Offshore, a place of abundance and plenty. The whole time, we’d been noticing the prominently displayed vaccination scars of those select few who’d already succeeded in completing The Process,...

3%, Netflix’s futuristic sci-fi thriller in which countless twenty-year-olds undergo a ruthless elimination process in hopes of becoming part of an elite few with access to their holy land, appears destined to remain in viewers’ queues unfinished or unwatched.
Adapted from creator Pedro Aguilera’s made-for-tv movie of the same name, 3% is Netflix’s first entirely Brazilian production, and no doubt a byproduct of the streaming service’s success with the crime drama Narcos. The eight-episode first season, looking to capitalize on its timely themes and painfully deliberate diversity, showcases a wealth of well-intentioned observations and opinions on modern society and governing bodies. And yet, the series ultimately fails to produce the compelling, compassionate, bone-deep commentary its setup could elicit.
In a not-too-distant dystopian future, the show opens as some combination of overpopulation and lack of a sustainable food and/or water supply have led to slum-like living conditions for all.

Netflix has given a series order to “3%,” a futuristic thriller that will be shot entirely in Brazil, the company announced Wednesday. The first season of the streaming service’s first-ever series to be made in the South American country will be directed by Oscar-nominee Cesar Charlone (“City of God”), and star João Miguel (“Xingu”) and Bianca Comparato (“Irmã Dulce”). “3%” is set in a world divided into progress and devastation. The once-in-a-lifetime chance to pass to the “better side” is through a cruel – and not always fair – process where only 3 percent of the candidates succeed. “Ultimately, the series questions the dynamics of.
