[A] sweet and somber film....What we haven't seen before is this politically tinged soccer-crazed Brazilian Jewish environment....[Hamburger] does not not hold back from showing it to us.
Los Angeles Times
Rating: 7/10 --
Heavy on nostalgic charm, but a lovely and insightful portrait of children buffeted by their parents' leftist activism in the 1970's and of São Paolo's Jewish neighborhood.

This Brazilian coming-of-age drama, co-produced by City of God creator Fernando Meirelles, charms because it rarely spells things out.

You've heard this story before, but what makes The Year My Parents Went on Vacation worth seeing is the unfamiliar setting...the Jewish community of Sao Paolo.
