Ándale!

2017 • 4 min • Brazil

It's a film about the world today, about the need for a revolution, an uprising of the masses against the exploiters, so that the financial system can be completely rethought.

Of course, in 4 minutes there's no way to theorize about something so complex, but given the inequalities of today we have to do something, even if it's a short 4-minute short that, perhaps, awakens the inner revolutionary of those who watch (or not ).
