Why watch this film?
In 2016, Brazilian filmmaker Alê Abreu enchanted and surprised the world by earning an Oscar nomination for Best Animation for his sensitive work on "O Menino e o Mundo". He didn't win the category, but he joined a select list of great names in animation. Six years after the nomination, and ten years after the first screenings of his award-winning film, Abreu returns to the screens with "Perlimps". As in his previous work, the director works with minimalism and sensitivity to talk about Claé and Bruô, voiced by Giulia Benite and Lorenzo Tarantelli. They are spies from rival kingdoms in this universe created by Alê Abreu, and they must join forces to locate the Perlimps, magical beings that can help save the world. Although a bit too ingenuous, the feature film manages to move parents and children with a beautiful message about peace, unity and against war - although the ending, going according to everything the world lives during the hard 2020 century, is quite gloomy and questioning.

One of the most recently acclaimed Brazilian films in the world, highly praised by critics and even nominated for an Oscar for Best Animation, there are few national productions that manage to receive such recognition. 'O Menino e o Mundo' was created with colored pencils, wax crayons and collages, and it went far! It's worth watching!

Woody Woodpecker Goes to Camp

Robot Dreams
Sometimes we get so carried away by the marketing power of studios like Disney Pixar, and we overlook other avenues for deep and powerful animated stories that don't need excessively complex plots to evoke emotions. Such is the case with Robot Dreams, a Hispanic-French production directed by Pablo Berger (2012’s Snow White), based on the eponymous graphic novel by Sara Varon. Set in New York during the 80s, the story follows Dog, whose solitary life leads him to buy a robot for companionship. Their friendship grows, but an unfortunate day at the beach forces them to separate and long for the day of their reunion. Virtually without dialogue, with vibrant animation and a captivating visual language, the film tells a simple yet profoundly moving story about (curiously) human relationships and the course they take despite (or because of) accidents, fortuitous circumstances, and uncontrollable events that happen throughout life.
Masha and the Bear: Twice the Fun
Masha leaves the forest in pursuit of an adventure in the city, where she encounters many unexpected situations and surprises while attending a wedding, and later seeks to do everything in her power to save Christmas.
