An Avocado Pit

Ary Zara

IndieLisboa 2022 • National Competition

Portugal, Fiction, 2022, 20′

Larissa, a trans woman and Cláudio, a cis man, meet one night, in the streets of Lisbon. Two people, two realities, who dance their differences away till morning light. In challenge, in surprise, in awe and in recognition. An empowering story, free from violence and filled with light and hope for the better days yet to come.
