Verdes Anos

In the 1970s, in the midst of political repression and the ideology of the "Brazilian miracle", a group of teenagers live their daily concerns: the future, nights full of dancing, dating fights, conflicts with their parents. For three days they live their green years, a little more than a dream.

For Love

A group of artisans sell handmade wallets, belts, bags and sandals at Rua da Ladeira, but the production is disorganized. A young businessman decides to invest in the boys, divides them into work groups and decreases their resting hours. In return, he offers them a great place to live. Their “industry” starts to make a profit, but those who work continue to earn very little.
