A Dios Momo / Good-Bye Momo

DIOS MOMO/GOODBYE MOMO (Uruguay) is the magical and vivid story of Obdulio a cheerful eleven-year-old Afro-Uruguayan boy who lives with his devoted grandmother and two sisters. He is the self-proclaimed "man of the house" and sells newspapers on the street to make money to live and to buy needed school uniforms for his sisters.




Obduilo can't read or write and has no interest in attending school as his grandmother encourages him to do. One night he meets the charismatic night watch man at the newspaper's office who introduces him to the world of literacy during the mythical nights of the irreverent and festive Uruguayan Carnival. The watchman teaches him to read and write and Obdulio starts to understand life through the lyrics of the Murgas (Carnival Pierrots). The carnival atmosphere transports the viewer to a magical place where realism and surrealism live side by side. This film is a celebration of life, the beauty of friendship and the magic of knowledge.

En Ingles no es Good-Bye Momo x q entonces seria Adios Momo. Yo entiendo q' es un juego de palabras pero en igles no funciona. Y si le ponian To God Momo los gringos nos linchan.
