MQFF: Night Stage
The hyper-sensual melodrama electrifying the film festival circuit
Tapping into full-colour emotion and romantic anarchy in the vein of iconoclastic auteur Rainer Werner Fassbinder, Night Stage is the hyper-sensual melodrama electrifying the film festival circuit.
A one-night stand between aspiring young actor Matias and charismatic mayoral candidate Rafael veers dangerously off-script when their craving for public sex draws the attention of powerful figures who prefer desire to stay in the dark.
Directing duo Filipe Matzembacher and Marcio Reolon bring unapologetic gay intimacy to the screen, resurrecting the erotic thriller and reimagining it for a contemporary queer era.
DIR: Marcio Reolon, Filipe Matzembacher. Brazil, 2025.
