O Ano em Que Meus Pais Saíram de Férias
In 1970. while a military coup was raging in Brazil, the Brazilian team was also in the World Cup competition in soccer. When 12-year-old Mauro's (Michel Joelsas) Communist parents (Simone Spoladore, Eduardo Moreira) must flee for their lives, they drop off Mauro at his grandfather's apartment building where he will be safe until they can return for him.
Little did his parents know that Mauro's grandfather had just passed away. Suddenly the grandfather's neighbor, Shlomo (Germano Haiut) becomes Mauro's guardian in the old Jewish district of São Paulo.
Mauro must begin a whole new life but his passion for football (soccer) helps him through the difficuly times. He is also befriended by the neighbor girl, Hanna (Daniela Piepszyk).
This film was nominated for and won many prestigious international film awards.

Rated PG for thematic material, mild language, brief suggestive content, some violence and smoking.
My personal rating: B
