Program Note
A 16-year-boy is into Bob Dylan so much he is called “Mr. Tambourine”. He spends most of his time surfing the internet like other teens while listening to the songs of Mr. Folk. In the virtual world, his eyes and mind has been seized by an unknown girl. Who is she? To a boy living a boring life, can the internet world be the way out? This is a film dealing with what is known as “Teenage Angst." But, the growing pains of a boy described by this film are quite different from those of other film about growing up. In comparison with other films at Pusan International Film Festival this year, its difference is distinctive because this film emphasizes inner problems and self-reflection, rather than seemingly wandering around. That is why this film appears to be a little bit abstract and grotesque like something by David Lynch. Differentiating from other contemporary Brazilian films, this is such a unique feature debut film from Brazil.
