Product Description In the latest film from João Pedro Rodrigues ("Two Drifters," "To Die Like a Man") a solitary ornithologist Fernando (Paul Hamy) embarks on a journey searching for an elusive species of stork but is quickly swept away by raging rapids. Rescued by a pair of Chinese pilgrims, Fernando ends up plunging headlong into an eerie and dark forest in this "transfixing spiritual and sexual odyssey" (Los Angeles Times).

Very different, weird at points! Fun! Different
I really like this movie 🎥 loaded with symbolism. Dripping with eroticism and Homo eroticism. Lol. Raised Catholic. Believe me "we understand symbolism. And finding your way in life and 💕 love

One of those I had to think about
I bought the movie from being pleased with another movie by the same director, O Fantasma. This particular movie is definitely not one to fit into the Hollywood mold. Scenery great, each vignette good and increasingly stranger. Overall, I liked the creativity and obviously different ways of thinking. The love scene between the main actor and the mute goat shepherd was beautiful, but ended so tragic. A good addition to my collection just because it is so over the top different.

A beautiful man in beautiful scenery. The background music is sublime.

A random string of bizarre events
I've heard that this is an allegory based on the life of St. Anthony. Even if it's true, I don't think knowing that would add to an appreciation of this movie. As each scene went by I was really perplexed by what it was about and where it was going. I love experimental films, but this one really didn't grab me at all. As strange it was, the scenes had very little impact, because they were all so brief and underdeveloped. The funny thing is, any one of the scenes could have been developed into a full-fledged story of its own and probably would have been really interesting. The whole movie could have been about his encounter with the Chinese pilgrims, or it could have been about the deaf shepherd that he met. Instead, each vignette was just dropped dead. There was an attempt to bring it all together in the last 5-10 minutes, but it was way too late for it to matter. On the other hand, as most everybody here has noted, the film has some really beautiful photography, especially at the beginning. It made me want to go to wherever this was filmed.

This film almost works. The first half is exceptionally better than the second--when the film suddenly nose dives into an incoherent mess. Beautiful nature shots and erotic moments throughout.

Weird but wonderfful.
Weird, but in a complex and twisted way. I want to see more from this film team.
