Director Statement

The film was made as a hint for the contradictions surrounding the lives of upper middle class brazilians, but the intent was always to film the cats as the main characters, seeing how they go about their day, how they connect with each other and how the humans interject in their lives as “Tom & Jerry“ esque characters, less humane than the cats themselves, weirdly.
