The film is dedicated to the young Fernando Pereira, a former employee of Belas Artes, who tragically died in his twenties right after the completion of the film. He was one of the most passionate activists to have defended the permanence of the beloved movie theater. In the documentary, he is seen leading demonstrations and expressing his love for the cinema he worked for.
Private Fears in Public Places (2006) holds the record as the film played the most in theaters, mostly at Cine Belas Artes, for the duration of four years, which includes the three final years of the cinema (when it was about to be closed) and on its reopening in 2014 when it was the first film selected for its re-inauguration.
