20.02.25, 20:30, The Devil Queen (1974)
In the sweltering streets of Rio de Janeiro, a queen reigns supreme. The Devil Queen follows Maria do Socorro, a flamboyant drag queen who watches her realm of nocturnal excesses and clandestine desires with iron fists and painted nails. However, her crown weighs heavily: what queen can trust her subjects, no matter how flamboyant they are? When she appoints a scapegoat to put her lover out of the wind, a plot brews against Her Majesty.
Director Antonio Carlos da Fontoura paints a raw and sensual portrait of a life on the frayed edges of society, where freedom is a precious commodity and identity an act of defiance. With colourful images and a soundtrack that captures the rhythm of the city, a story full of tragedy, glamour and survival instinct unfolds. The Devil Queen is a fierce indictment of societal hypocrisy and an ode to the resilience of those who don't fit the bill. A regal viewing experience that shimmers in the shadows and fascinates until the last scene.
