After the last few days filled with a blizzard, a sprained knee and the news my son’s house was broken into and ransacked while he is serving in Afghanistan, this little film gave me my first laugh in days.
You know when you’re driving with peace of mind and suddenly see a dove who insists on not leaving the road? In this little short, the epic battle between a beloved grandfather and a strange “performer” finally shows us the other side of the story.
As best as I can determine, this short film was the result of a group of friends who got together to make the film. It was produced in about a month, during their spare time.

My apologies for the poor translation but Google was useless and I barely speak English let alone Portuguese. 
Sabe quando você está dirigindo com toda tranquilidade e de repente avista aquela pomba que insiste em não sair do caminho? Neste pequeno curta, o épico embate entre um querido vovô e uma estranha “penosa” nos mostra finalmente o outro lado da história.
Este trabalho é fruto da parceria de um grupo de amigos, que se uniram para tocar o projeto. O curta foi produzido em praticamente um mês, durante horas vagas, algumas noites, e um carnaval.
Estamos participando de um concurso de minicurtas da RBS TV, ele está entre os 12 selecionados e concorre a melhor minicurta. Você pode ajudar votando na página do Curtas Gaúchos – redeglobo.globo.com/rs/rbstvrs/curtasgauchos/index.html
