Ilha das Flores (1989)
A thrilling social documentary
30 July 1999 - 13 out of 15 users found this review helpful.
That's the kind of movie you'll see quite by chance, one evening on television. And you will never forget it.
"Ilha das flores" is the story of a tomato, from the field where it is cultivated to the dustbin, and beyond. It's fun, and, at the same time, it tells you a lot about the economy and the Brazilian society. What is really unique for a documentary is that the story is as pleasant to follow as in a fiction, and the end is one of the more stunning and moving end I have ever seen in a movie.
