BLOW YOUR NOSE AND… BEHAVE!
Monique Rutler, Portugal, 1981, 25 min
(Live-Action, O.V. Portuguese)
Special session with the participation of actress Leonor Cabral
A rarity in the history of Portuguese cinema, preserved in the RTP Archives. Made as part of a European initiative in which various public channels from different countries challenged filmmakers to make a short film about childhood and freedom. Monique Rutler responded with this amusing and provocative film, in which a farce (played by actresses Raquel Maria and Maria Vieira – the latter in her first role as an actress) is combined with street reporting.
