Em uma das atuações mais extraordinárias do cinema moderno, Adèle Exarchopoulos surge como uma jovem explorando sua sexualidade nesta crônica magistral de amadurecimento. Vencedor da Palma de Ouro de 2013 para Kechiche e, em um Festival de Cannes primeiro, Exarchopoulos e a co-estrela Léa Seydoux.
A Borgesian matryoshka doll of storytelling, Mysteries of Lisbon is Chilean maestro Raúl Ruiz’s magnum opus—a sumptuous period epic in six parts. Playing in its rarely screened extended version, this sweeping melodramatic saga is Dickensian in scope and magisterial in novelistic ambition.
Vendettas are executed, passions bloom and wane, and all roads lead back to Pedro in this diaphanous concluding episode of Raúl Ruiz’s elaborate masterwork. As its final secrets are revealed, Mysteries of Lisbon finds the ephemeral sum of a life in the stories we tell ourselves and each other.
All the world’s a stage for young Pedro, who underlines the theatricality of Raúl Ruiz’s lavish epic with the cutout figures in his puppet theater. Secrets beget revelations in this riveting second episode, as wicked whispers spread like wildfire through the drawing rooms of Portuguese society.
Mysteries of Lisbon’s myriad flashbacks gain a new perspective, as Father Dinis moves to the center of Raúl Ruiz’s narrative labyrinth. Following his arrival in Episode 2, the series finds its villain in the cruel Alberto de Magalhaes, while young love beats an inexorable path toward tragedy.
