2024, 6'

An animated film in which the question is why get over a broken heart if you can just remove it? 

Ornatos Violeta and Vitor Espadinha had already sung “love is a disease when we think we see our cure in it”. Which is easier? Stop loving or remove the heart? Broken heart syndrome is also known as takotsubo cardiomyopathy. In turn, tako tsubo means, in Japanese, an octopus trap, which is a pot shaped like the heart in the acute phase of this syndrome. And this is also a trap movie. At first, we find the object strange. Then we get trapped inside it and can’t escape its charm. The ending is apotheotic in Mary Orcher’s voice, flying over a pool of blood. (Carlos Ramos)
