This mockumentary short is full of inspired comic tangents, including a professional Santa Claus trying to find comfort in a newly chilly city of Brazil. Only growing in relevance today, Kleber Mendonça Filho’s inventive vision of adapting to climate disaster is dystopian yet delightfully witty.

Kleber Mendonça Filho’s arresting short carries the spirit of his later debut feature Neighboring Sounds: an apartment’s cacophonous noises lend this eccentric comedy a sinister air. Building to an unforgettable climax, this look at our symbiotic bonds with appliances is a hypnotizing treat.
