Fucking Different São Paulo

Summary

This is the fourth film of the conceptual series "Fucking Different", produced
by Kristian Petersen. The filmmakers from São Paulo developed their
projects in a script workshop during the 16th Mix Brasil Festival.

The
Brazilian version contains a variety of interesting genres. There are twelve
stories in which women address the gay world and men address the lesbian universe. In "Do Almoco", Rodrigo Diaz Diaz and co-director Elzemann Neves show that friendship can hide the most secret desires, and that to achieve them is a delight. The protagonists of Ricky Mastro’s "Felizes Para Sempre" have been married for years and, amazingly, still get along, living proof that romantic love is not merely the preserve of Hollywood. In "Deus Do Impossivel", Luciana Lemos breaks a conservative taboo and shows that, contrary to what many square people may think, homosexuals are indeed loved by God and can go to church. The world of pop also finds its
place in the collection with "Dykeland" by Gustavo Vinagre, about an allfemale
a rock band. Joana Galvão and Monica Palazzo have made a bold
work; in their trilogy "1718, 1972, 2009", they tell three stories that cross time
and are all linked by a work of art. Joana Galvão returns to the theme again
in the animation "Um Olhar". Desire is also the guiding principle of "Ronda",
directed by Max Julien. Accompanied by the sound of a delicious tango,
Herman Barck proves in "Flaca" that love can come from the most surprising
places. Luiz René Guerra explores the memories of a female couple in
the delicate "Casa", and Silvia Lourenço and Sabrina Greve show in "Under the Skin" that life’s upheavals are no reason to despair.
