Production and release

Reflexões de um Liquidificador commenced to be shot in August 2008 in São Paulo.

It was not a success but grossed R$179,521, and an audience of 24,149 people, while other domestic releases did not achieve 100 viewers. It also guaranteed Klotzel the Best Director Award at the Brazilian Film & Television Festival of Toronto.
