The area around Catalan in Brazil's state of Goiás remains dry, very dry, just like Sandro's life here. He works in a fertilizer factory, and engages in a purely sexual relationship with his colleague Ricardo. When the charming Maicon shows up in their small town and flirts with Ricardo, Sandro's burgeoning feelings of jealousy set a chain of events in motion.

The Pink Lens

A harsh reality intrudes on a narrative that becomes more and more fetishised.

Rated: 3/5

Miami New Times

It's as much of an erotic feature as it is a studied one, with pornographic sequences as erection-generating as they are clearly referencing the works of gay adult film directors from the past.

Shadows on the Wall

Writer-director Daniel Nolasco has a terrific way of catching real feelings with strikingly stylised imagery... And the way it explores toxic masculinity is deeply touching.

Rated: 3.5/5

Dry Wind takes a more drolly comedic approach to a messier intrigue of variably closeted liaisons.
