Mouth in Brazil
UK BRUTAL film festival hosted by London's Halloween Society De 15 a 27 de maio no Centro Cultural Banco do Brasil em Brasília
an unsolicited mail from a viewer...
this was nice to receive -
"Your new film "Carny" looks like it will be very interesting as well.
I've often wondered what sort of lifestyle traveling carnival workers
lead and what factors motivated them to join up. I appreciate your
immersion in sub-culture and how you expose the humanity behind people
who are often prejudged by mainstream society. Please keep them
coming!
Sincerely,
Robert."
