Luis Seel

This story revolves around the use of narcotic drugs and their harmful effects. Extraordinary luxury, artistic nudes and lascivious dances (Cinemateca Brasileira)

A young woman faces several obstacles to sleep.

The oldest surviving animated film from Brazil. The only animal in a zoo, a monkey, escapes its cage, causing a lot of trouble.

A risqué mixed-animation sketch film in which a live-action hand draws glamorous female figures that spring into motion and transform through rapid ink and cartoon effects, followed by a series of playful visual gags.

This film is a fine example of Seel’s saucy humour and his novel style, combining live-action and animation techniques, similar to Max Fleischer’s work in the US. When Pierette pours the contents of the artist’s pot of ink over herself at the end, the film seems to be spoofing Fleischer’s Out of the Inkwell series, which invariably ended with the animated clown Koko vanishing into the bottle.
