Vera 1986
Seen at the BAMPFA with João and Cooper. Conversation with Jenni Olson, Julian Carter and João Federici. Really good balance in discussion of Brazilian history paired with queer examinations.
What an incredible experience. João kept whispering in my ear context about the military dictatorship - the horror and violence in the background of Bauer falling for Clara.
There was so much going on here - I feel a bit lost for words.
Want to rewatch soon.Translated from by

Orlando, My Political Biography 2023
Seen at BamPFA with Maddie, Cooper and João. Conversation with Susan Stryker and Ellis Martin.
Even better the second time. The act of breaking the fourth wall, showing what’s behind the curtain, weaving between reality and fiction, defying genre and form - is the very essence of transness. What a badass film that captures the joy of community, a chorus of Orlando’s, in metamorphosis.Translated from by -
Heartstone 2016
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
Beautiful coming of age story. Both actors had incredible performances. Visually stunning - but hard for it not to be when the backdrop is Icelandic landscapes.
