Sinekatalog’s take

Joaquim Pedro de Andrade adapts Dalton Trevisan's stories about the quarrels, lusts and absurdities of Curitiba's middle-class couples. Caustic and playful, in short episodes, it is a bitter, satirical comedy of manners.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
