Praia do futuro

Donato works as a life guard patrolling the spectacular but treacherous Praia do Futuro beach. When he dives into the sea after two men caught in the undercurrent, he saves Konrad, a German vacationing in Brazil, but Konrad's friend is lost to the sea. While waiting for the body to resurface, a bond grows between Donato and Konrad and the initial sexual sparks give way to a deeper, emotional connection. The two men find themselves falling in love and Donato decides to leave everything behind to follow Konrad to Berlin. Far from the Praia do Futuro, Donato finds both confusion and liberation in the cold but vital German capital, and his journey for love soon connects to a deeper search for his own identity. Years later, Donato's younger brother Ayrton travels to Berlin. Full of anger, he needs to know why his brother abandoned him without a word. But just as it did for Donato, the intense pulse of the foreign city brings Ayrton many more questions than answers. These three men struggle to reconcile the ache of loss and longing, instinctively drawn to each other in search of hope and a brighter future. (officiële tekst van distribiteur)
