Event Description:

Open your senses to a refreshingly original, uniquely animated feature
film from Brazil. Cuca, a small boy, lives a life of quiet wonder
exploring all that the countryside has to offer. But his cozy life is
shattered when his father has to leave for the city to find a job.
Cuca's quest to reunite the family sends him on an adventurous
journey. Director Alê Abreu's striking style employs crayon-like
drawings, kaleidoscopic images and watercolors that explode with
vibrant color. The film's music — a soundscape of pan flute, samba and
Brazilian hip-hop — is on equal footing with the stunning visuals as
it mixes with the whirling carnival colors and exploding fireworks.
Audiences of all ages will experience different levels of the same
narrative when the seemingly simple story becomes a cautionary tale.
Winner of Cristal Award for Best Feature Film and Audience Award at
the prestigious Annecy International Animated Film Festival. Age
recommendation: 8+
