Description
Latin cinema, expresses the marvel of sexual diversity in all its forms exposing its variety of angles. Emotions of desire, happiness, fear, pride, prejudice, and friendship, intertwine to form a profoundly human experience through cinema.
In this program we introduce two films which approach sexual diversity from very different angles. We commence with a short in which the different edges of sexual diversity are shown subtly and without barriers. To conclude, we showcase a feature film with stunning artwork from Brazil that pushes the theme of sexuality to go further in search of love.
