Pocas pra Entender
Synopsis
A hybrid short film (documentary/fiction) that plunges into the realities of three independent, marginalized artists from São Paulo, some of whom are members of the LGBT community (including a notable transfeminine performance artist). The plot follows the artists' subjective journeys rather than a single central conflict. The storyline focuses on self-discovery, artistic creation as a form of resistance, and the search for ways to make a living from art within a context of social and economic limitations. Through interviews, performances, and glimpses into their daily lives, the short film explores how these artists transform their identities—including their queer identities and the challenges associated with them—into powerful artistic expression.
