O Sanduíche (The Sandwich) Genre Fiction Director Jorge Furtado Cast Felippe Monnaco, Janaína Kramer Die, Milene Zardo, Nelson Diniz Year 2000 Length 12 min Color Color 35mm gauge Country Brazil A couple's last moments: their meetings, separations and a sandwich. A tale with a lot of surprises from the best Brazilian director. SANDUICHE (SANDWICH, in Portuguese) is a mind-bender mix of detailed character profiles, multiple points of view, and the art of cooking. But most of all, SANDWICH is wonderful because of Jorge Furtado's ability to tell a story in a way that changes entirely our perspective in each turn of the story. Here this master proves that making a movie could be just like cooking a meal - you blend flavors to create something unique. That's what makes SANDWICH so appealing - the way Furtado creates a story that changes its "flavor" every time. Passion, jealousy, anxiety, love, irony, it's everything here. A masterpiece. For those who are not familiar with the work of Furtado, take a look at another short, ILHA DAS FLORES (ISLAND OF FLOWERS), considered one of the 100 best shorts of all time by the Clermont-Ferrand Festival.
