EROS (2024)
Directed by Rachel Daisy Ellis
Production: Dora Amorim & Rachel Daisy Ellis/Desvia (Brazil)
Feature Documentary (107 mins)
Brazil's love motels are a haven where fantasy becomes reality. When the filmmaker's own date never shows up, she gets a fresh idea for a film instead.
Through personal and at times explicit footage filmed by the participants themselves, Eros presents the unique and singular ways in which people conduct their intimate and romantic relationships and how these behaviors reflect on broader social norms and realities.
The result is a kaleidoscopic insight into a parallel world of human desire.
