Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

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

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
One for anyone looking to switch off and smile. Good for nights when you want to switch off and laugh.
The mood
Light and funny.
The pace
Light on its feet, at 1 hr 30 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
What might put you off
  • It's in Portuguese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1960: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if you're after something serious tonight.

It is the story of Pedro, who after being passed over by his brothers, wanders the world in search of a better life, but on the way, finds children who eventually conquer it, and in order to help them, he passes scamming other people he met along the way, telling lies, however, always with the goal of helping him new friends. And kills a cow.
