Genres
Overview
Akin, a young Black transmasculine journalist from the countryside of Bahia, dives into a research project to understand the city's perception of trans people. His journey is not only professional but also deeply personal: he seeks to discover which masculinities have shaped him. Along the way, Akin is transported to a parallel universe, where he meets four oracles who read the fate of the world. They reveal that the patriarchal system of masculinity is broken and on the verge of collapse, dismantling everything once believed about what it means to be a man.

Laerte-se
In this film, Laerte conjugates the body in the feminine, and scrutinizes concepts and prejudices. Not in search of an identity, but in search of un-identities. Laerte creates and sends creatures to face reality in the fictional world of comic strips as a vanguard of the self. And, on the streets, the one who becomes the fiction of a real character. Laerte, of all the bodies, and of none, complicates all binaries. In following Laerte, this documentary chooses to clothe the nudity beyond the skin we inhabit.
