Before The Last Curtain Falls

My body Is Political

 


Set in the slums of Sao Paulo, this film follows the lives of a group of young people who seek their own identity through the exploration of their body, gender and sexuality. They get up every morning with the mission of overcoming their fears and running the risk of following the complex sensation of feeling free in a body that is constant transformation within a hostile place.
 

Casa Roshell

 


Premiered at the Berlin Film Festival, this film documents the curious space of Casa Roshell, a kind of underworld where its hosts and guests make a constant reflection full of art, magic and debate about what it means to exist, to be or not to be. The theme is how to embreace full representation of what the human soul requests. Contumes, songs, pain, joy and magic, all emotions emerge in this space of pride and unlimited expression.
