Film synopsis: 
<p>Abelardo is a documentary about Jos&eacute; Ant&ocirc;nio da Silva Ballestero who has been a projectionist for 53 years at cinemas on the west border of the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Jos&eacute; Ant&ocirc;nio learned how to do the work with his father, who encouraged him to work in the projection room since he was a boy. The film tells the journey of a humble man showing his simple passionate view of the cinema. The memories, the films and opinions are revealed through a very spontaneous and amusing language. Abelardo captivates people with his sincerity and friendliness. This is a nice story of the difficult job of a projectionist.</p>
