About Fernando Who Received a Bird from the Sea
A simple Portuguese-Brazilian song. Fernando spends his time in Porto in the neighborhood of Fontainhas between a small house and a local café. A parrot reaches him from Brazil, which evokes paradise in his imagination. This gives rise to a Portuguese-Brazilian correspondence. A game of mirrorings develops over the exchange of letters between the two friends, in which ideas of each other’s country are reflected.
Directed by Helvécio Marins Jr., Felipe Bragança, Fernando Who Received a Bird from the Sea leans on a strong ensemble — Ash Ashaninka, Nicholas Bartolo, Fernando Bigodes — 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 fantasy titles of 2014.
