Sometimes I go after a director for one film and they’ll come back at me with another that completely trumps my already high appreciation of their work. This week is such a case with director Gabriel Tupinamba and his lyrical study on repetition Das Dores.

“Charlie Rose” by Samuel Beckett via Andrew Filippone Jr.
