Dry Wind
Directed by Daniel Nolasco
Produced by Panaceia Filmes
A slow-burn, erotically charged drama about desire and jealousy in a remote Brazilian town, where a monotonous life is disrupted by the arrival of a magnetic stranger.
The area around Catalan in Brazil’s state of Goiás is dry, very dry. Sandro’s life here is somewhat monotonous. He works in a fertiliser factory, goes swimming and spends his evenings doing jigsaw puzzles of landscapes. When Maicon, a man straight out of a Tom of Finland illustration, shows up in their small town and flirts with Ricardo, Sandro’s burgeoning feelings of jealousy set a change in motion.
