CGiii Comment

The occidental mind will definitely challenge and/or be challenged!

This is a love story like no other...with shamans and tigers, talking monkeys and tropical forests.

There are ghostly animals, stuff of legend, a film of passion.

And what would you sacrifice for love?

Watch it...for something entirely different.

The(ir) Blurb...

'Tropical Malady' explores the passionate relationship between two men with unusual consequences. The film is divided in two parts. The first half charts the modest attraction between two men in the sunny, relaxing countryside and the second half charts the confusion and terror of an unknown menace lurking deep within the jungle shadows.
