About The Portuguese Falcon
A satire on anti-communist paranoia in the days of fascist dictatorship in Portugal. The series follows the adventures of the "Lusitanian superhero", the ultra-patriotic Captain Falcão, a man who follows the direct orders of António de Oliveira Salazar in the fight against the "red menace".
Directed by João Leitão, The Portuguese Falcon leans on a strong ensemble — Gonçalo Waddington, David Chan Cordeiro, Matamba Joaquim — 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 comedy titles of 2015.
