Summary
'Como Desenhar um Círculo Perfeito' (2009), directed by Marco Martins, is a Portuguese drama that explores the complex dynamics of sibling relationships, sexuality, and self-discovery. Set in a Lisbon household that has preserved an older way of life, the film follows Guilherme as he navigates his unrequited love for his sister Sofia and her relationships with other boys. After their grandmother Clara's death, Guilherme flees to his father's house but finds himself increasingly isolated due to his father's immersive lifestyle. The film is described as intimate and silent in style, offering a claustrophobic universe that explores the limits of human emotion, often brutal yet infused with perverse beauty.
