In 1974, Chico, a beloved host of a children’s TV show at the service of a repressive authoritarian regime, is forced to make the hardest decision of his life: murder a colleague live on air, or lose the approval of his powerful father. As the cameras roll, the program unravels into a surreal theatre of obedience, repression, and madness.
It's Chico Time! was directed by Rafael Sá Carneiro and João Severo.
It's Chico Time! runs for 19min, and was released in 2025.
