A little more technical prowess would have elevated this fascinating subject about race and identity into something much more important.

The(ir) Blurb...

This short portrait of Victor Hugo, a young Black gay man, blurs fiction and documentary style to capture Black queer and trans life in the suburbs of a major Brazilian capital.

Ficção e documentário se cruzam para mostrar o processo de transformação e empoderamento de Victor Hugo, um jovem negro e gay, morador da periferia do Distrito Federal. Seu relato se mistura aos depoimentos de outros jovens, cujas histórias revelam diferentes formas de resistência, encontradas em discursos de valorização do negro gay.
