CGiii Comment

Erm...a blisteringly incomprehensible portrait of a performance artist.

Losier - simply - forgot about her audience.

It's just a parade of drag queens in silly costumes...mermaids, creatures of the night, bugs...doing silly things in front of the camera...for no reason other than to bore the pants off the viewer.

The(ir) Blurb...

Mysterious portrait of Fernando, aka Deborah Krystal, the glittering and poetic performer of the Lisbon club Finalmente, where he has been performing every night over thirty years in golden dresses. Under the layers of his colorful fabrics, the many skins of Fernando are revealed, letting Lisbon's legends come to life. Alternately woman mermaid, female birds, woman lion, we are taken into the desires and dreams of metamorphosis and myths.
