Director Statement

My first short as a director and already enjoying a great opportunity to have met this wonderful person who is Elismaura Pereira dos Santos, a woman of fiber and a lot of race.
I feel proud that the film has reached more than 20 exhibitions in festivals in Brazil and even abroad! Mainly because it was done at a cost $ 00 and with a lot of effort and team work.
Long life to independent cinema, long life to the Brazilian guerrilla cinema!

Meu primeiro curta como diretor e já aproveitando uma baita oportunidade de ter conhecido essa pessoa maravilhosa que é a Elismaura Pereira dos Santos, mulher de fibra e muita raça.
Me sinto orgulhoso pelo filme ter chegado a mais de 20 exibições em festivais no Brasil e até fora! Principalmente por ter sido feito à um custo $00 e com muito esforço e trabalho de equipe.
Viva o cinema independente, viva o cinema brasileiro de guerrilha!
