While Sergio Toledo's film Vera is widely recognized as pioneering for its portrait of a young transgender man struggling to find their place in Brazilian society, its narrative and lead performance by Ana Beatriz Nogueira are perhaps open to scrutiny in the year 2021. In this new video piece, Julia Katharine invites her good friends Claudia Campolina & Daniel Veiga, both of whom are active in the Brazilian film industry and cinephiles in their own right, for a discussion about how the film should be newly received today.
