A wonderful new film from director Gustavo Vingare (“The Blue Flower of Novalis”) takes place in Sao Paulo in a-not-so-far dystopian future. The city is taken over by a virus that attacks the brain and the people’s ability to remember. An entire country has forgotten their colonial past and the cruel dictatorship that ruled the place. Three young queers are getting swept into a surreal adventure in the once noisy city which is now quiet due to the virus and raging capitalism. They talk abou their experiences with HIV, get make-up tips, visit an elderly client and eventually arrive at an antique shop run by a singer named Mirta.
“Three Tidy Tigers” is a magical and clever creation about friendship and love on the outskirts of society, during a plague era.
Additional screening: Rosh Pina Cinematheque 27.10, 20:30
