Amor Estranho Amor is a film about the fluidity of memory—how we remember our past, and how desire distorts our view of it. Ironically, the film’s distribution history mirrors its themes. It exists now mostly as a ghostly, low-fidelity memory on a hard drive somewhere, passed from collector to collector like a secret.
The story is told as a flashback by an adult man named Hugo, who reminisces about a pivotal period in 1937, where as a boy he stayed at a luxurious bordello in São Paulo, where his mother was the mistress of a powerful politician. Collector Value: amorestranhoamorlovestrangelove1982vhs+exclusive
