Beautiful, interesting, incredible cinema.
HARD PAINT
Tinta Bruta
Synopsis
Emotionally withdrawn Pedro finds connection to the outside world as “Neon Boy,” an online erotic worker whose paint-slathered dances have won him a legion of fans. But when “Boy25” steals his trademark technique, Pedro must venture far outside his comfort zone to defend his space as a performer.

Our take
From gifted filmmaking duo Filipe Matzembacher and Marcio Reolon (Seashore) comes this queer coming-of-age story for the digital era. Bold, loud, and unapologetically sexy, Hard Paint is both a character study of a young man’s double life and an incisive depiction of the consequences of homophobia.
