the body
Kirpianuscus5 April 2023
An experimental short film about recreation of body of legendary Portugues king becomes exploration of lives, motivations, map and meanings of tatoo, eulogy of male body and the image of Dom Alfonso Henriques, in references to testimonies about him as definition of identity, images of past, legends and very simple stories of few guys, with lovely bodies, naked, telling their pieces of existence who, in good measure, are precise crumbs for reinvent the body of king.

Sure, provocative but can be different than you expect from this director ? No doubts, not ! But , real, it is just seductive for the dose of honesty, freshness than defines the films by Joao Pedro Rodrigues.
