Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for adventure lovers and anyone who loves a strong drama. A good one for when you want to be swept off somewhere else. Same wavelength as True Grit.
The mood
Exciting.
The pace
Takes its time with its characters, at 1 hr 30 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
What might put you off
  • It's in Portuguese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1970: an older pace and style.
  • Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.

Limpopo, dating from 1970, directed and produced by Jorge de Sousa, is a story about safaris where the protagonist was a rich industrialist from Porto. It was filmed in Lourenço Marques, in the Limpopo colony and the Maputo elephant reserve.
