In addition to him, others managed to bring to the screen teen films, clichés at the time, but which are now considered classics and even cults.
Most of the feature films were also known by the Brazilian public, who dreamed of the abolition of school lockers or even uniforms, through Ceso da Tarde, Globo or Cinéma m Casa on SBT.
