In the small village of Veredas stands Casa Rosa, a famous brothel run by Ismael’s mother. Because of this, he is known as the “Son of a Bitch”. Trying to leave that reality behind, Ismael leaves his mother in pursuit of the two things he has never met: his dad and the ocean. Carrying the only memory he has of his father, a copy of the book Moby Dick, he sets out to cross the arid backlands of Brazil, alongside his three-legged dog Bacalhau, on a journey that will show him that he cannot escape himself or his destiny.<\/p>\n
\nDirected by:<\/strong> Erica Maradona, Tania Anaya, Otto Guerra, S\u00e1vio Leite Producing an animated feature film in an independent Latin American studio, using regional elements, is costly and demands a great deal of faith from everyone involved. Not faith in the religious sense, but a belief in the work being created, even when the outlook seems uncertain. Son of a Bitch took nearly ten years to come to life. During that time, we faced a coup d\u2019\u00e9tat in Brazil and countless political uncertainties that, at many moments, made us doubt whether this film would ever be completed.<\/p>\n We are deeply happy to have finished a film that carries the richness of our culture, our landscapes, our colors, and that is also capable of resonating beyond our borders, as we have witnessed in the countries where the project circulated while still in production.<\/p>\n Finally, we would like to highlight the choice of a raw and bold art direction combined with full 2D animation, which required intense human craftsmanship and the sensitivity of attentive and hopeful eyes.<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text] [vc_row] [vc_column] [vc_column_text] SON OF A BITCH Brazil | 2026 | 73′ In Portuguese with Slovenian and English subtitles ABOUT THE FILM In the small village of Veredas stands Casa Rosa, a famous brothel run by Ismael’s mother.
