“5 Outlaws” premieres on Looke March 20 with Eric Roberts, plus 5 exclusive titles arriving March 18.
Looke, Brazil’s subscription streaming platform, kicks off the week with seven new releases. The centerpiece is the Looke Original “5 Outlaws”, premiering March 20 and starring Eric Roberts, best known from “Inherent Vice.” Five additional exclusive titles land on March 18.
Looke Original: a western built on betrayal
In “5 Outlaws”, a band of thieves discovers that the money they stole from a train has vanished without a trace. As suspicion mounts, each outlaw fights to prove their innocence. The film blends western, action, and crime thriller elements, directed by Austen Paul and Joey Palmroos. The cast also features Dallas Hart (“Father Stu”) and Arthur Sylense, seen in “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.”
March 18 exclusives
The Plastic Men leads the exclusive slate. This horror-thriller follows Jonathan Teller, a man forced to fight in Vietnam who survives the war but wages a brutal internal battle against post-traumatic stress disorder — until an unexpected encounter changes everything. Directed by Samuel Gonzalez Jr., starring William Fichtner (“Cold Brook”), James Preston, and Aaron Dalla Villa.
https://youtu.be/COMwtpcOPGoThe Italian drama The Legionnaire (Il Legionario) centers on Daniel, the only Black officer in Rome’s riot police, ordered to evict 150 families from a building — including his own. Directed by Hleb Papou, with Maurizio Bousso, Alessandro Catalucci, and Giacomo Ciarrapico.
https://youtu.be/tP9SLP7VM9MIn the romance National Anthem, 21-year-old Dylan takes a job at a ranch in the American Southwest and discovers a queer community of rodeo performers crafting their own version of the American dream. Directed by Luke Gilford, starring Charlie Plummer (“Walking Out”), Eve Lindley, and Rene Rosado.
The Man Who Stood in the Way tells the true story of Frantisek Kriegel, the hero of the Prague Spring. Arrested by Soviet troops alongside five other political leaders, he was the only one who refused to sign the Moscow Protocol — the document that would have legitimized the Soviet occupation of Czechoslovakia. Directed by Petr Nikolaev, with Tomás Töpfer, Adrian Jastraban, and Daniel Heriban.

Together, they set off to find a cure. Directed by Sophie Farkas Bolla, with Alex Dupras, Gaby Jourdain, and Marilyse Bourke.
