”The number of films which deal with the global economic crisis head to head is shockingly small which leaves the field open for someone with the creative complexity and storytelling verve of Miguel Gomes, whose three-part ARABIAN NIGHTS attacks the issue with characteristic imagination and , less surprisingly, with righteous anger ... a substantial work that interweaves topicality and allegorical fantasy” - Variety wrote at the premiere in Cannes. The famous ”Tales from A Thousand and One Nights” provide the framework for a gripping chronicle of the consequences of the economic crisis: tragic, comic and fantastic stories from everyday Portuguese life.
