Summary: The ironic, heartbreaking and acid "saga" of a spoiled tomato: from the plantation of a "Nisei" (Brazilian with Japanese origins); to a supermarket; to a consumer's kitchen to become sauce of a pork meat; to the garbage can since it is spoiled for the consumption; to a garbage truck to be dumped in a garbage dump in "Ilha das Flores"; to the selection of nutriment for pigs by the employees of a pigs breeder; to become food for poor Brazilian people.

The best Brazilian documentary. A ironic wiki about tomatoes, pigs and the capitalist system's fissure.

Highly amusing, fast paced and at times reminiscent of Monty Python, and because of all this all the more effecting in its look at dehumanisation and how people mistreat one another.

I can see the Vonnegut (my fave author) influence so I'm kind of biased. The narration is so Kurt it's incredible. The way it uses humour, bizarre images and a... tomato to dissect human right violations and just society in general is pretty much perfect. And not only that but it's ballsy as fuck, declaring "God does not exist" in the first 30 seconds. It was from that moment on I knew I'd love this because it was so in my face.

Starts out amusing, then it kicks you in the dick by showing some of the flaws of Capitalism in relation to the poor.

Short surprising showing in a different way the intrinsic aspects of capitalist society, based on the ideology of consumption, the individualism and exclusion from society.

A macabre short film about human rights, describing specifically one social injustice in Brazil but ridiculing along the way many other ignorant superstitions.

An amazing little film about the human condition. The whimsical narrative contrasts sharply with the sometimes gruesome imagery and cynically depressing content. Truly one of the best short films.

An interesting view of the "free" market but the narrator presents the whole thing with a cynical tone that's very off-putting.
