The Kiss

It wasn’t the first kiss... neither the first time

A dark social drama about persecution and moral corruption, where a simple act of human compassion becomes weaponized by opportunism and institutional homophobia.

When a pedestrian is hit by a bus, the simple clerk Arandir runs and kisses the moribund in a gesture of sympathy and unconditional pure love. Opportunist photographer Amado Pinheiro witnesses the scene and sees the opportunity to sell newspaper and, together with the despicable and abusive chief of police Cunha, accuses Arandir of homosexuality.
