O Amor Natural

About This Movie

O Amor Natural is an intriguing dive into the sensual side of Carlos Drummond de Andrade's poetry. It’s remarkable how the film captures the essence of his erotic verses, which, mind you, were kept under wraps during his lifetime. The pacing feels almost meditative, allowing you to soak in the weight of his words and the landscapes of Brazil. The atmospheric visuals are complemented by a delicate sound design that makes you reflect on desire and intimacy. It's not just about the poetry, but how the film translates those feelings into something almost palpable. Quite distinctive in its approach, this documentary invites you to explore the layers of eroticism in literature, giving a voice to what was once silenced.
