A Noite Saiu A Rua

A Film by Abi Feijo (1987)

based on the book "Caricaturas Portuguesas Dos Anos De Salazar"
original drawings by Joao Abel Manta



As Noites sao dias escondidos do outro lado dos nossos desejos. Mas algumas permanecem como sombras flutuantes a deformar as imagens indefesas do quotidiano. Rostos feridos de ausencia, figuras hirtas de silencio, terras salpicadas de sangue...E vamos morrendo adormecidos, indiferentes, ate que as manhas acontecam.

Nights are hidden days beyond our minds. But some remain like flying shadows reshaping the naive images of our lives. Faces hurt with emptiness, characters petrified in silence, lands inked with blood....And we become sleepy, carelessly dying, until morning happens.
