It’s a story filled with frankness and same-sex desire, depicting artists battling restrictive governments steeped in religious dogma and censorship—a scenario that seems to apply to most nations. I’m rating it a 7, but I strongly suspect the version we watched has been heavily edited. (That's standard practice for American distributors.) The film received recognition at the Rio International Film Festival, which is quite an achievement, suggesting its original form might have warranted an 8 or 9. Unfortunately, the cut we saw didn’t effectively communicate the movie's political themes.
