Som, Amor e Curtição

Zezé is an eight-year-old boy who lives with his grandmother and suffers the drama of not having known his father. Amanda, Zezé's mother, is a beautiful but disillusioned young woman. She tells her son that his father is constantly traveling, trying to hide her own pain. Father's Day arrives and, at school, the teacher is preparing a party. Zezé, humiliated in front of his classmates, promises that he will bring his father on the day of the celebration. Zezé begs his grandmother to show him at least one photograph of his father. The old woman mistakenly gives him a photo of the singer Tony Marques, her daughter's former boyfriend. Zezé sets off to find her supposed father and ends up getting disastrously involved in the singer's life.

Directed by J.B. Tanko, Som, Amor e Curtição leans on a strong ensemble — Antônio Marcos, Júlio César Cruz, Sônia Clara — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about music titles of 1972.
