António um dois três
Antonio One Two Three
Als António von seinem Vater aus der Wohnung geworfen wird, sucht er Zuflucht bei seiner Ex-Freundin, wo er unerwartet auf die geheimnisvolle Brasilianerin Débora trifft. Und er begegnet einem jungen Bühnenautor, der sich mit der Inszenierung seines ersten Stückes abmüht. Im anonymen Großstadttreiben von Lissabon sind nicht nur diese drei Schicksale miteinander verknüpft, sondern auch die Grenzen zwischen Fantasie und Realität beginnen zu verschwimmen. Inspiriert von Dostojewskis Erzählung „Weiße Nächte“, erzählt der Debütspielfilm von den Ängsten und den emotionalen Befindlichkeiten der heutigen Jugend. (Filmfest Hamburg)
Like his predecessors Visconti and Bresson, young Brazilian director Leonardo Mouramateus has chosen to adapt Dostoyevsky’s short story “White Nights” for his feature debut, set against the backdrop of Lisbon. What initially seems like a banal comedy blossoms into an accomplished work in which metanarrative language ends up constituting the backbone of the entire film. The daydreamer in question is called António (Mauro Soares), and we follow him as he wanders around in search of fantasies and romantic mirages that take the form of Deborah, a green-eyed Brazilian girl played by actress and director Deborah Viegas. (Roberto Oggiano, Cineuropa)
