It is a short film by Rui Rodrigues Dantas addressing the honor among thieves. It's a look into the death and the human relationships that develop around a crime. This is the motto for the first episode of a trilogy that promises a lot.
What inspired this script ?
Rui Rodrigues Dantas : It's a mixture of ideas, I enjoy to do work that mark people, do not like things simple , banal stories. I like to know when people see a movie , or a short film, what they saw is one of my films. The idea of this script was exactly that, be strong in the beginning, a little calm in the middle and striking at the end, viewers know that one of the characters will die, however, wanted to be unique, that nobody had ever seen and got to achieve goal. What today is very difficult . I will forward this is the first film of a trilogy, I will get feedback from people and if it is very positive, I will proceed with the other two episodes.
Why the characters had names related with the Walt Disney universe ?
RDR : It was my little tribute to Quentin Tarantino and " reservoir dogs " which to me is one of the best movies ever and the characters are named after colors . So I decided to use Walt Disney, give him the amount due, he was a genius and managed to build an empire from nothing , and it was also my contribution to the man.
What was your biggest challenge in "confidence" ?
RDR : I evolved a lot since 2010 and "full house", which was also a short movie. In this film, I worked with actors who had never worked as an actor and my background has also helped to better convey the message, care which could never have done but were not for them. The short film was shot on a weekend, and the work actors lasted a week and two days and that was the biggest challenge, deconstruct people, distance them from their day- to-day so it wouldn't go to the movie, they are different persons.
Of characters you have written which is your favorite ?
RDR : Mickey no doubt. It is a character who still has much to give, is spectacular and the people were unaware of what he writes in his notebook. Understand that there is a name and date, but not the context.
You left this point open for the next episode of the trilogy ?
RDR : Yes, for me Mickey is king. ( laughs )
