Additional InformationTwo men find love in defiance of convention in this drama from writer and director Aluizio Abranches. Six-year-old Thomas (Gabriel Kaufmann) is best friends with his half-brother, twelve-year-old Francisco (Lucas Cotrim). Julieta (Julia Lemmertz) is delighted that her son Francisco gets along so well with her second husband Alexandre (Fabio Assuncao) and his son Thomas, but a few neighbours wonder if the boys are closer than is healthy. As the boys grow older, the bond between them grows stronger, and after the death of their parents, 21-year-old Thomas (Rafael Cardoso) and 27-year-old Francisco (Joao Gabriel Vasconcellos) are finally willing to acknowledge their physical attraction to one another. After they've become lovers, Thomas gets some exciting news -- a competitive swimmer, he's been accepted to join Brazil's Olympic team. However, as part of his training program, he's expected to spend the next three years at a camp for championship swimmers in Russia. Can Thomas stand to be taken away from the support of his friend, his brother and his lover?

  • From beginning To End - A very brave film on a social taboo.

    This Brazilian film explores the intimacy between two half brothers growing up, one is older than the other. Both parents express the concern that they are too intimate with one another ask them to talk about it but in the end do not make a terrific fuss about it. As time goes on and they loose both parents and both brothers find through the absence of one of them being chosen for Olympic swimming trials they both find they can be parted from one another. Towards the end of the film when they are both of adult age this turns into a homosexual affair. This film tackles the taboo of the problem of incest and makes a very good job of it without hysteria or being exploitive in any way, but it is fighting against normal social conventions. Brazilian films are hard to get hold especially with English subtitles but they are amongst the world`s leading filmmakers.
