Documentary

In this film, Laerte conjugates the body in the feminine, and scrutinizes concepts and prejudices. Not in search of an identity, but in search of un-identities. Laerte creates and sends creatures to face reality in the fictional world of comic strips as a vanguard of the self. And, on the streets, the one who becomes the fiction of a real character. Laerte, of all the bodies, and of none, complicates all binaries. In following Laerte, this documentary chooses to clothe the nudity beyond the skin we inhabit.

VIBE

A deeply personal and artistic exploration of self. It feels like a quiet, intimate conversation about the fluidity of identity and the courage it takes to embrace one's true, unclassifiable nature. A gentle, yet profound, journey beyond the surface.
