Giveaway — ‘The Year My Parents Went on Vacation’
August 3rd, 2008 in Contests, Drama, Hidden Gems, Movie News, Movies, Uncategorized
A very touching story of life in Brazil under the regime of dictatorship in 1970 during the World Cup of soccer when Pele’ took Brazil to third in a row championship, never before achieved. We meet Mauro, a 12-year old boy, whose parents go “on vacation” during the military regime and the World Cup. He finds himself in a diverse culture fending for himself at times. An endearing story with subtitles that you forget about as the film unfolds a classic coming-of-age story.
To win The Year My Parents Went on Vacation DVD, post your name and I will pick the winner Wednesday, August 6th. Good Luck!

August 6th, 2008 at 2:49 pm

August 6th, 2008 at 3:13 pm
I am an extreme film fanatic, and indie film addict, and this film is no exception. It is also one of those very rare amazing cinematic films that unfortunately went under the radar. Why can’t people just enjoy these types of films, instead of those overrated blockbusters that you see now.
But anyway, count me in, definitely!
August 6th, 2008 at 3:49 pm
This looks like a wonderful movie. Thank you!
August 6th, 2008 at 4:09 pm
