Featured Comments/Tips
What a shame everything they had to live. There is still who questions why the month of pride and marches is important. It is still fighting against so much ignorance. Very good movie.
I watched because of my spanish class, the start of the moovie kept me going because I wanted to understand the context, the romance stuff caught me off guard, I liked the "tragic romance" because of tragic time and place, it portrays a tiny % of what lgbt people probably went through in that historic context, kinda funny the Portuguese people helping them, and the interacial couple at the end.
what a great fucking movie.
