In ridiculousness, Diamantino lives up to its poster, but that’s not all it has to offer. Rather than just being a guns-blazing, gonzo romp, it is a biting satire with a laser-focus on a number of topics without ever really getting bogged down or too preachy about any of them. Gabriel Abrantes and Daniel Schmidt have worked on a couple of shorts as a team and a number of features separately, but this is their first feature as a team.
