In 1951, New York poet Elizabeth Bishop travels to Rio de Janeiro to visit Mary, a college friend. The shy Elizabeth is overwhelmed by Brazilian sensuality. She is the antithesis to Mary’s dashing partner, architect Lota de Macedo Soares. Mary is jealous, but unconventional Lota is determined to have both women at all costs. This eternal triangle plays out against the backdrop of the military coup of 1964. Bishop’s moving poems are at the core of a film which lushly illustrates a crucial phase in the life of this influential Pulitzer prize-winning poet.

I've seen it at least twice now. It's one of those movies you won't see reeling you in until you're halfway through. It's a melodramatic story but it never seems over the top. We get to see these people and how deeply flawed they could be at times, and how messy their lives could be as a result. The threeway relationship being just the cream of the crop.
