Experiencing Interruptions?

Mr. Tião Receives a Visit

In "Seu Tião Recebe Visita" (Mr. Tião Receives a Visit), we are transported to the picturesque countryside, where Mr. Tião, a man with deeply rooted traditional values, sees his routine disrupted by the surprise visit of his daughter and her boyfriend, a proctologist.
When the boyfriend reveals a serious medical concern, Mr. Tião faces a dilemma that transcends prejudices and pride. The proposal for a digital rectal examination is initially accepted by Seu Tião, but as the process is detailed by the future son-in-law, emotions surface, creating an atmosphere of vulnerability and challenge.

Director Statement

I believe that art, in addition to providing entertainment, plays a crucial role in bringing to light issues that are considered taboos in society. That's why I chose comedy as a medium; it offers a light-hearted, relaxed, and humorous approach to address a highly sensitive subject, such as the digital rectal exam.
