Tattoo Hilton Lacerda 2013

Fininha, a young soldier played by Jesuíta Barbosa, gets pulled into the orbit of Chão de Estrelas, the anarchic cabaret troupe run by Irandhir Santos's Clécio. Their connection turns into a forbidden romance, and that's the engine of Tattoo, Hilton Lacerda's 2013 debut feature. Brazil is under military dictatorship in 1978, Recife is the setting, and the film wears its politics loudly: queer desire, artistic rebellion, and resistance to oppression all get space, with love and performance as acts of defiance. It picked up multiple awards at the Festival de Gramado, and it's regarded as a touchstone of Brazilian queer cinema. The quote floating around it: "The symbol of freedom is the asshole, which is democratic and everyone has one!" 🍿
