Madrigal Para um Poeta Vivo
Adriana Barbosa, Bruno Mello Castanho
“Madrigal for a Living Poet” is a chant to life, an aesthetic tribute to the writer Tico. Filmic reverie about the reflections that the character brings, is a film about memory, which brings to light not only the agonizing paths of remembering, but also its political, resistance force, which insists on reinventing everyday life and searching for lost meanings.
