CGiii Comment

Between a house in the Atlantic forest and a genetically-modified mosquito factory near São Paulo, a polyamorous, non-binary relationship struggles to survive an epidemic spreading across Brazil. While in the factory millions of mosquitos are born daily inside test tubes, the power dynamics between Helmut, Calixto, and Tao only intensifies.

A fascinating and enigmatic piece of cinema. The world is depicted in its original queerness. Every category, every essence, every substance is put into question. The director does not pretend to know what he films, but looks at the things and beings offered before his eyes with true astonishment: poetry always begins in wonder.
