"This movie is inspired by 'Embargo', the legendary Portuguese writer José Saramago's story, which talks about the obsession to accumulate wealth and about human defeat in the face of materialism and technology. In a style very similar to The Coen Brothers, this feature-length film is full of absurd situations loaded with black humor, ensuring entertainment from start to finish."
