The Tower

A man's life is changed when he finds a mysterious young man in his forest property

Trailer

Why watch this film?

This movie is based on the short story 'Coiote' by writer and psychiatrist Roberto Freire. The adaptation manages to make an intriguing bridge between the human psyche treated in the text in contrast with the images. In the film, the protagonist tries to deal with the losses of his new life by isolating himself in a forest. It's very difficult to bring stories that bring this subject to the screen and director Sergio Borges did an excellent experimental job. It's a daring narrative that follows a man dealing with his own feelings, whether good or bad. Another relevant fact is that there is a good breaking of patterns, by the exploration of the male nude body, something that still causes some strangeness for not being used much in the media. We are used to seeing women naked and it's important to have this other look.
