Description

The life and the work of José Leonilson, one of the most important Brazilian artists of the 80's, who died of AIDS at the age of 36 in 1993. The video explores Leonilson's poetic and intimate universe through his work and through fragments of a diary he recorded between 1990 and 1993, where he talks about art, sex, memory and poetry.
