Rat Fever
Released: 2012
Drama
Zizo, a radical and anarchist poet living in a marginal quarter of Recife in the north eastern state of Pernambuco, distributes his social angst-filled thoughts through a publication named Febre do Rato, and spews poetry to anyone who’d listen. Our character always revolves within the universe that he has created around himself. A very particular world, in which satisfying the unfortunate is a mixture of a kind of benefit with high dose of malice.

Scenes
Eneida (Nanda Costa) is in a rowboat with her boyfriend when she needs to pee. He wants to watch, so she squats high over the edge of the boat. He holds her steady with one hand while he reaches under her with his other hand and feels her stream of urine. The peeing can be heard for at least 30 seconds, and a realistic stream can be seen (barely) for part of that time. In an interview, the actress claimed it was real and that she drank a lot of water prior to filming.
