Alfazema (2019)
Delightful!
Chaotic, seductive, mysterious and funny! 100% pure energy! What enchants me most about "Lavender"(2019) is the film's incredible ability to transform chaos into an endless locomotive of incredible plot-twists in a short space of time and space, almost supernaturally. An explosion of colors, bodies and passionate performances. Impossible to remain impassive in front of the hilarious and magnificent representation of God, here in a female and black version. The impression I get is that the entire cast had a lot of fun making this film, which is usually something rare to see. A great little movie for sure.

Beautiful Cinematographic Poetry
T's that simple: I just saw the "Queen" here on youtube. And it is, quite clearly, the film that moved me the most of the ones I have seen in a long time. It moved, above all, for being very, very, very good cinema. All right, all better than right, perfect balance (made of alternating imbalance) between rigor and freedom, raw truth and dream artifice, cutaneous proximity and distant, respectful observation. Very rare, all of this. Very, very rare in Brazilian film, which needs (I think) exactly that. Intensely Brazilian, the film, on the other hand. It could only be Brazilian, it could only be yours. I'm spread out on the floor, "sprawled", as Dalva de Oliveira would say... Only at the end, in the generic, I saw that these unbelievable images are from Julia Zakia. Incredible, her harmony with the vision of filmmaker Sabrina Fidalgo, the universe of the "Queen", the universe inside her, the universe that is hostile to her, everything. And now I'm going to try to wake up from the blow I took from that "Queen".
