A poignant and funny coming of age drama from Brazil set in the 1970 during the political turmoil and the frenzy of the world cup soccer. Director captures the nostalgia of the era well in this charming film. A young boy is left by his politically active parents at his Jewish grandfather place where he has to grow up fast. The mix of drama and comedy is well balanced. Another milestone for the Brazilian cinema. YRCinema's coverage of films on DVD.
