900 Tons

A quiet, lived-in portrait of a young couple stretched thin by work and dreams, where small absurdities and tender struggles accumulate into a low-key ache.

Directed by

Daniel Soares

Overview

With newborn twins and opposite schedules, Sandro works nights as a garbage collector and cares for the babies by day, while Cléo works at a supermarket and builds a fragile hairstyling career using Sandro’s long hair for her videos. As she moves forward, he refuses to sell a sports car he can’t afford, renting it out for television shoots and finding increasingly absurd ways to keep the illusion alive.
