Os Mutantes
- 9:30PM
This intense drama about three teenagers—street children in Lisbon who end up pregnant or exploited by a pornographer—reflects the late-90s reality of a broken juvenile system and features a mostly non-professional cast. Struggling to survive together, they move in and out of foster care and pay the price for petty crimes. The resonant film—intended as a documentary about homeless children, until government authorities refused to cooperate—inspired nationwide debate over reform of Portugal's youth authorities.
