The Pandemic Anthology

This Brazilian drama and horror anthology features a collection of short films created during the early months of the 2020 global pandemic. The project originated from a Fantaspoa Film Festival competition that invited international filmmakers to produce stories about the health crisis using only the limited resources available to them while in quarantine. These films aim to document the uncertainty and isolation of that specific period.

The production was handled by Raven Banner Entertainment, Fantaspoa Produções, and O2 Play, with a screenplay credited to Emerson Niemchick, Guillermo Carbonell, and Beatriz Saldanha. The film was produced by João Pedro Teixeira, Fernando Sanches, and João Pedro Fleck. The anthology includes work from several directors. For Beatriz Saldanha, this film preceded Au Revoir, Slumdogz. For Fabrício Bittar, it was followed by Unexplainable and The King of the Internet. Other contributors include Junior Larethian, Matheus Maltempi, Alejo Rébora, Martín Blousson, Guillermo Carbonell, Emerson Niemchick, Karl Holt, Julio Napoli, and Daniela Pires. Giordano Gio directed this after Cidade Média, while Karl Holt directed it after Benny Loves You.

Released on May 22, 2020, the film has a runtime of 86 minutes. Audience reception on IMDb reflects a low rating of 4.4/10 based on 83 votes.
