TROPIC OF CAPRICORN (2005).

Tropic of Capricorn.
short film | brazil | 29.00'.

Four transsexuals are brought in to a hotel room on the same night. Each trans woman is asked to lay on a bed in an empty room and reveal herself to a camera mounted on the ceiling. As the film progresses, their stories blend, separate and overlap in a beautifully-constructed collage of multi-coloured images. They share with the camera their fantasies, hopes, questionings and experiences in the streets of Sao Paulo.

Έτσι λέει. Τί να σου πώ. Δεν έχει πέσει στην αντίληψή μου κάποιο τέτοιο φεστιβάλ.
Από την περιγραφή της ταινίας στο vimeo αντέγραψα.
