Marcus Vilar was born in Campina Grande, but moved to João Pessoa (the capital of Paraíba) when he was still young, in 1976 at the age of 17. He entered the Federal University of Paraíba on the Physical Education course, but through the influence of his college friends he met and migrated to the world of arts. At the end of his degree, he didn't want to follow the career that the course had given him, he changed the focus of his studies and exchanged the ball for the camera, becoming a reference in the Paraíba cinema scene.
