Forget Everything I've Told You

About This Movie

So, 'Forget Everything I've Told You'—it’s a bit of a wild ride through the ups and downs of a Portuguese family. The tone swings between laughs and somber moments, capturing that messy essence of family life. You’ve got this dentist dad, Messias, who seems to think he’s a magician of sorts—talk about a quirky character. Felizbela, the wife, radiates a kind of almost-happiness that's intriguing. Then there's Joana and her boyfriend, who are sort of chasing fame, which adds this layer of youthful ambition. The pacing feels like a family gathering—slow at times, chaotic at others. There’s something uniquely human about their dysfunction that makes it stand out, you know? The performances feel genuine, almost like you’re eavesdropping on real-life drama.
