How
do you feel that your film was
selected for Lakino?
I'm really happy and excited to screen my film in the festival. I think the selection of shorts is really strong and it's a huge honor to screen in such an iconic cinema like the Babylon.

Is
this your first time in Berlin?
It's my 5th time. I love Berlin! I ve been to Berlinale twice: one in 2008 when a short I wrote, called Tá, won the Teddy then in 2011 to participate of Talent Campus with a feature film project at Talent Project Market.
Other times I was in Berlin as a tourist or visiting friends. I love its nightlife, queer scene and arts everywhere.

What ideas, images or thoughts come to your mind when you think of Berlin?
Love, Kreuzberg, sex, the huge avenues, great people, the canal with the swans in Kreuzberg, the shops of Mitte, cinema, Fassbinder.
Sao Paulo, connecting in Frankfurt
Before traveling, what things have still to be resolved before the trip?
I'm finishing to write a doc in Rio doing some research here. And then I just need to pack :)
Not really - just my sense of humor I
guess and comfortable shoes!
What is your favorite ice cream?
Chocolate
Bye and see you soon during the Festival....boa viagem!.
