This is a nice movie, a surprisingly good acting and multi layer story building considering its minimalism on the budget side. Director does a wonderful job to develop a story on prejudice, love, sacrifice, and impact on social values on lifestyle choices. My five star goes to Daniel Passi particularly, he delivers a tour de force performance reflecting complexities of a hustler who struggles between emotions and real-life facts. A small gem from Brazil cinema.

the young lead daniel passi, don't know if this was his first role or if he is an established actor but either way he was worth the price of admission. i'm talking acting ability.

Great lgbtq movie easy story line to follow

Too many loopholes, the older guy should have been in better shape because not every middle age man is super fat and a slob like this one. Also if they are going to be in bed having sex or foreplay have them both totally naked as well as when they kiss it was so fake. Although Fabio plays the role of a hustler very well they both look dirty, grimy all the time as well as the apartments and locations.

Great movie.love it from beginning to ending

Fabio is a hustler who works the streets of Rio and he meets Eduardo who is much older and also a writer. They start a relationship but have issues around the use of protection, commitment and choices of friends let alone ‘career’.Now that is about it, the subject of STI’s is dealt with in an interesting way and there are side issues with one of Fabio’s friends. However, not a lot happens here. It is a small budget affair – filmed in real apartments etc – and some of the shots were really tasteful but that can not detract from the glaring lack of a real plot. The characters are actually acted fairly well and there is a genuine feeling of warmth here but that of itself is not really enough.This is not a keeper as such – you may wish to rent as I did but there is very little here to make you a fan. Also very little in the form of ‘bedroom action’ if that is your thing, so not one I can really recommend unless you have to see everything ‘gay’ related that comes out and you may find something to like here.

Excellent movie.
