Recife Frio

Directed by

An unexpected climate change hits the city of Recife in northeastern Brazil, transforming it into a cold, damp place. Accustomed to a tropical climate, with warm temperatures year round and a mean temperature never below 20 °C, Recife's residents suddenly have to get used to bundling up. With a Tv troop as our guide in this semi-serious mockumentary with a touch of black humor, we discover the effects this radical change has brought to the community and the real implications such events may well have.
