皆爲好事 Only Good Things/惟有美好

　　Beginning with a pivotal encounter between two men in Goiás in the 1980s, director Daniel Nolasco weaves a narrative that spans across time and, perhaps, multiple dimensions, driven by the intense forces of desire and love, as well as the suffocating weight of repression and silence. Nolasco, who was featured in Olhar’s Focus section during the pandemic, continues his distinctive and undefinable journey with a radically queer cinema that refuses to look away from the often paradoxical physical expressions of both desire and violence.
