This is a movie I was curious to watch for a long time. Despite its popularity in #Letterboxd, it’s difficult to find a version with English subtitles. I google-translated the Portuguese subtitle file for the miniseries cut (2 hours 38 minutes). I’m sure a lot was lost in translation (literally) but still, it was a fun watch. A sequel is coming next year, so we should hopefully see an official streaming release soon.
