Os Moradores da Rua Humboldt

It is a fine short based on a Julio Cortázar story. I was hoping for something along the lines of Rabelais' Pantagruel, as this is also something of a humorist's creation than anything else. But no. It's more like Francis Ponge, if you like thought-provoking, outsider prose poems, or like Isadore Ducasse, if you want absurd, poetic short stories.

Directed by another O2(Same of City of God) director and producer.

This short movie tells magnificently one story of the strange occupations in Julio Cortazar's book "Cronopios & Famas".

It's the story of a Hair thrown down the sink that has to be recovered and the path that one strange family followed on this quest. Brilliant Pedro Cardoso, as Usual.

Cortazar's surreal stories are great for film making, I hope some day a Full Lenght is set to tell the brilliant odyssey of the Cronopios, Fames and Hopes.

Another good Cortazar based movie is Gerwitz's "Jogo Subterrâneo"
