Miguel Loureiro

Two actors play two characters in a sober, undetermined, perhaps timeless setting. All too sweet so as not to bolster an extreme, yet static, poisoned violence. They explain the world to us, as Marguerite Duras explains, they explain to us the powerlessness in the face of that world, in the face of the love they postpone, in the face of the fear they sense in the peeking beast, a feeling that takes over John, the looming catastrophe that will drag them to the end.
